No, I don’t think you’re crazy 
A little eccentric, maybe 
But I’ve always loved you like that 
Don’t I always have your back? 

I was never the one to judge you 
Instead I’ve always tried to nudge you 
In becoming of what you dreamed 
Of a life so great that you have deemed 

To be married at an age not too old 
To have kids before you reached 40 years old 
To be surrounded by friends who truly accept you 
To be surrounded by family who won’t step on you 

You’re my Romeo and I’m your Juliet 
We’ve wandered together. The journey’s not over yet. 

There has never been a day that has gone by 
That I’ve stopped loving you even if I try 
But I don’t want to try nor leave your side 
I want to support you in anything just like a bride. 

So what that people has called you out of your name 
They are hurtful words that you shouldn’t claim 
Being smart is a blessing. Treat it not like a curse 
But they treated you so bad your emotions just burst 

I know it was hard to take the teasing 
Even from girls who need bad boys for pleasing 
Being nice is soft and being a gentleman is weak 
They would've made you miserable every day of the week. 

Society’s real hard on you for just being you 
For being so kind and even so generous too 
Then you began to shut the world out 
They say you have issues but you didn’t even pout 

You’re my Romeo and I’m your Juliet. 
I’ll travel with you. Our world didn’t end just yet. 

Your friends weren’t really exactly the best 
But you couldn’t think of them as anything less 
Because they were the kind of people you’d trust 
Y’all friendship, you thought, was very robust 

You have done everything in your power 
To make sure your friends weren’t devoured 
They repaid you with such little gratitude 
But later would give you so much of their attitude 

You thought that forever they’d be your ride-or-die boys 
Until you realized that they were playing you like a toy 
I became your best friend and picked up their slack 
I didn’t want the hurt in your heart highly stacked 

You’re my Romeo and I’m your Juliet. 
I’ll stand by your side. We’re not done just yet. 

Before anything else family came first 
They’re the bank, the counselor, and even the nurse 
That’s what you went by. That’s what you believed. 
Sadly to say that you were greatly deceived. 

If they needed you for anything you were there 
You had unlimited love and kindness to spare 
They used that against you knowing the result 
They’d made you feel guilty and threw in some insults 

Your heart and mind would be twisted up in pain 
Cause you couldn’t fathom why they fed off of your pain 
If only I had known right from the very start 
I could’ve helped you much better with your bleeding heart 

You’re my Romeo and I’m your Juliet. 
I’ll never leave your side. We’re not close just yet. 

All the pain and anguish that you’re going through 
You’d think if your life was a color, it’d be blue 
You often wonder why God is just sitting 
Knowing your problems as if His, on you, quitting 

Or maybe He just doesn’t even care 
Even though you declared a dangerous dare 
That one day you’ll talk to Him face to face 
If you’re prayers go unanswered, just in case 

“Why didn’t You save me from the hurt? 
Am I so unworthy that I’m lower than dirt?" 
I guess only the chosen ones get a better life 
The called will just have to be brave to not lean on the knife 

You’re my Romeo and I’m your Juliet. 
We’re so very close. Does He not hear us yet? 

On the dock, as the car is picking up speed 
We’re wondering if we’re doing an unforgiveable deed 
Soothing music plays as we flew into the air 
Before the car dives, we wonder if He’ll show that He cares 

We kissed passionately knowing it’d be our last 
We held each other’s hands while the radio played jazz 
The freezing water flushed in and suffocated us 
We took it all in so lightly because it was more than a must 

Grief-stricken Romeo drank poison to follow his Juliet 
She took a dagger to the heart and then went quiet 
Whether in life or in death they’d forever be together 
They couldn’t dream of being apart that’s how much they loved each other 

You’re my Romeo and I’m your Juliet. 
I wonder if God’ll answer our prayers yet.
