I Was Once Called Romeo

So Juliet~
screaming from the balcony
can your eyes distinguish me?

Can your thoughts bend around me
can your love feel me
and your compassion be tender to me?

Are you hard and solid where needed to be
and give way at distances free?

Is your emotion a shadow
or the sun?
or an object in between?

Can you raise my body
like some hot toddy
sleepy?

Can you sooth these thoughts
with no effort on my part
cause I work hard
to remain in the end
especially if its impossible.

Can you do these things?
That which I never win
or wander away from
when not trying
cool breeze
just be
screaming from your balcony free
I'm bound to stop by to see who calls.
