"If you only knew all the love that I found,
It's hard to keep my soul on the ground."

Oh how cliche to say
that you are my Romeo and I am your Juliet.
But that's as close as I can get to describing this dilemma
Without describing my parents.

You are beautiful.
Inside and out
Whether you choose to believe it or not,
I will convince you of it.
You are the most wonderful thing.
And honestly I think I can tell the difference now
So don't tell me I'm wrong.

Why do I have to find you so perfect?
Why does this have to be so perfect?

Why do you have to leave so soon?
Why do you have to commit to
the one thing I hate most in this world?
I cannot be with you forever
no matter how I want to.
No matter how I'd love to.

Because I can't ruin your life,
my own,
and my future family's.

How cruel a world, making me let you go
"For never was a story of more woe
Than this of Juliet and her Romeo."
