Told through kind of a 3rd person prospective. Its basically Romeo kills himself to be with Juliet and she survives. This not a structured poem-totally free form enjoy. Just bc I italicized parts does not make it a song!


It was here
lost in a cold universe of black chalk
the bone chilling coldness awaking nothing
that I found you
and you found him

his breaths were caught
upon you
one simple look devouring your eyes
his ashen skin was no longer turning blue
you gave him my smile
instead of running
you held onto him
through his skin tight mask

hold onto what you once believed in
never seize to carry on
hold the world upon your shoulders
and let every second last forever
just hold on
to the love that's left

He never bothered you
so you tracked him down
he told you no
but words can change that
a thousand tidal waves can phase that

hold onto what you once believed in
never seize to carry on
hold the world upon your shoulders
and let every second last forever
just hold on
to the love that's left

Behind the stars together
you'd shared your love
you'd watch the tides shift
never listening to my helpless pleas
it was limitless
what love had done
how blind you had become

hold onto what you once believed in
never seize to carry on
hold the world upon your shoulders
and let the world shift
no-one's here to take your love
as long as you do it fast
racing against a make believe past
it was limitless
what love had done
how blind you had become

you never left when he beat you
traced the sky with your last breath
holding onto love for him
you didn't dare let go
as your life fell
a skinny arm
no longer holding onto that thin rope

hold onto what you once believed in
never seize to carry on
hold the world upon your shoulders
and let every second last forever
just hold on
and let love do the rest

every night he would cry for you
the dead were his only forgiveness
and watching from the shadows
I saw his love for you
his passion as he took the drink
his glee as it poisoned his soul
and his love for you through death
as he fell in tune with you

because he was just as blind as you

keep holding onto everything you believe
make paper dolls upon your knees
never seize to live life strong
carry love upon your shoulders
and give her
the strength
to hold on

oh how she wished she died that night
her desire to see him
it burned her heart
and to her
who loved him with all her heart

she should have known
that the man couldn't live
without her love
because he loved her back
with an undying heart
