Juliet

My Juliet, my vine,
‘Did my heart love till now?’
The unbreakable seal,
So lost in the torment of my soul,
Broken by a single kiss,
drawn by the ‘Sin from thy lips.’

And you may ask I love thee how?
You purge my soul,
Like an artist cleansing his palette.
Oh give me my sin again,
Teach me how I should forget to think,
For every day is full of wantedness,
Like a petal floating in the abyss,
Caressing the ocean bay.
