A Montague and Capulet lie in a dark sleep
loving each other with no heartbeat
no more fears about bieng apart
He dead of poison, and she pierced her heart
A queen and knight do now appear
A Lancelot and Gwenivere
secret meetings under the moonlit sky
Hiding feeling that they can not deny
Of Cyrano and his love Roxanne
he won her love for another man
and for her smile he done that deed
a sad favor in which his heart did bleed
A Dulcena and her foolish knight
who batteled windmills with all his might
If he found her love was untrue
would he be the knight we knew?
A dark author and Elenor
standing before deaths black door
she passed through and yet he stayed
to watch the raven fly away
