A Sonnet: Literally.

Son·net Noun. A fourteen-lined mosaic
poem. Usually consisting of bland
rhyme schemes. One poem with two couplets, three stanzas
Ten syllables per line. Verb Ever-lasting. archaic.

You said you would stay here with me forever.
Shakespeare warned me about this. About us. About them.
The wine we drink is never all that strong enough
Romeo and Juliet were cop-outs.

Gravity supposedly rides with luna.
Tongues weave together, eyes made of moon rock.
We are atom bombs, small enough to travel alone.
The space-time continuum stops with us

The curtain closes, they all bow and bow.
The heroine kills herself with the pen.
