O maiden, thy maiden

Below is inspired by Juliet’s monologue, in Romeo and Juliet, “O Romeo, Romeo”.

O maiden, thy maiden, wherefore art thou thy fairest maiden,
Deny thy travels and refuse thy school,
Or, if thou wilt not, be but sworn my love,
And thine happiness is eternal.

‘Tis but thy future that is my uncertainty,
Never mind the unavoidable, for thou needs to go,
By any distance would thy love be undying,
And for thy love, all thou owes,
A single kiss on a darling night.

For you my darling.

Quote

I hate the way you talk to me, and the way you cut your hair.
I hate the way you drive my car, I hate it when you stare.
I hate your big, dumb combat boots and the way you read my mind.
I hate you so much it makes me sick — It even makes me rhyme.
I hate the way you’re always right. I hate it when you lie.
I hate it when you make me laugh — Even worse when you make me cry.
I hate it when you’re not around. And the fact that you didn’t call.
But mostly I hate the way I don’t hate you — Not even close, not even a little bit, not even at all
