A Poem by Nile Flores (originally written in 2004)
Go ahead and stab yourself Julia
Did you really truly love Romeo?
Or did you simply lust for him?
You are too young to know what love really is.
You might know the love of family or friends,
but obviously not that of a lover or husband.
And honestly, Romeo is only thinking with his dick.
He loves the attention,
while he charms you into thinking he cares.
Oh yes, he does in a way.
As Romeo lays there, poisoned because of an accidental miscommunication,
you weigh the scales in favor of wasting life - your life.
Why decide such a thing,
when you didn't really know the boy all that well?
Is this the right choice?
Think deeply little girl-
Is death the answer to your love?
If you truly believe so,
then plunge that dagger deep.
You really never loved him anyway.
