Volume One
ROMEO AND JULIET
Romeo finds Juliet in the
tomb.
Romeo ran into the tomb
And saw Juliet asleep,
The sight of her just lying there
Made him break down and weep.
He saw the shrouded Tybalt
And to the corpse he said,
‘Your soul can rest in peace, my friend,
I too will soon be dead.’
Romeo kissed Juliet
Then without the slightest sound,
He drank the poisonous potion
And collapsed upon the ground.
If only he had waited
If only he’d not taken
The poison at the moment
Juliet would awaken.
