I found this song when I was randomly listening to sad anime vocals on Youtube and man this is such an awesome anime and I'm surprised it isn't super well known. You raise me up is really beautiful in the Japanese version and I grew up loving this song and it brings back memories of my younger days. Hope you go easy on me since I'm still watching the anime and I hope you guys enjoy this poem. I don't own the characters.
I don't understand
Why I have to be this way
Why can't I let down my long hair
And dress the way as I please?
Oh the palace was beautiful
The lights shining above like stars
Men and women swaying to the music
Forever lost in its song.
As I sat staring into the water
A voice called out to me
As I stared at a lovely face
His very image made my heart ache.
"Romeo," he said
What a lovely name it is
But before I could reply my own
People came to take me to my home.
When it was announced
My true birthright
I fell to my knees as I remembered
The blood splattered across my mind.
No why must this be?
This forbidden love between he and me
I the daughter of the Capulets
He the son of the Montagues.
"Juliet, stay with me," he says
"No I can't," I reply with haste
For we can never be together for all eternity
For we are bound by a twisted fate.
Please stop this horrible tale
Where I can never prevail
My heart and soul are torn to two
Where can I look forward to?
Romeo, oh Romeo
How I miss you so
The sound of your voice, the smile on your lips
The way you pulled me into an everlasting kiss.
Now as I stand with the sword of Capulet
I thought of how we had to meet
On opposite sides, forever in battle
How I wish we could get this settled.
Oh please Romeo
Save me from my sorrow
Take me away from here
Where we can be together forevermore.
