But new, struck two
moon's light shines bright
an if thine eyes doth closeth
dream of me, and I will come sir
of course, bodily not, but of thy breast
of thy lips, I shall speak
of thy eyes, I shall see
of thy breast I shall love
of vanity not, I shall be!

The author's comments:
I was re-reading Romeo and Juliet and thought of how it would be to live the short life of fair Juliet. I wrote to my real life Romeo, Kris, and I actually sent it to him! He loved it and wrote me back!
