"Did my heart love till now forswear it sight
I never saw true beauty till this night."
True beauty is the name of this, a work
That such obsession from a maid can spark.
The love of words that open up to me,
In five acts, two-score scenes I fell in love.
The way breath beats against the lips
The cause of my impassionéd love
Stills my tears and springs a shower from dry eyes.
For ne'er so fully beat within my breast
A heart o'erwhelméd with such rosiness.
My blood runs fast within my veins as
I behold the swordsmen drawing their blades
And see the mortal enemies in love.
I speak soliloquy and weep at death
When my lover dies before my eyes.
Romeo lives on within my heart
'Tis said that he was whole with Juliet
She was his other half; I must be her,
For he has helped me find a budding love
Of life, of lords, of language and of love.
