No Juliet

In the hazy glowing of haloed lights There a silent scream of a heart unclaimed Lost to a maze of bars and endless nights Caught in the cold of unrequited flame Like inky shadows dancing on the wall Your voice a ghostly whisper in the rain The absence haunts me, as I wait to fall Your touch, a distant fleeting, transient pain Drowning in silent alienation Lost, longing for a touch I can't forget Tears from an unspoken proclamation Knowing forever you're no Juliet Every word unsaid, every touch un-felt A captive of fantasies, lost in time In this loneliness, hope is left to melt Longing for a love that was never mine A broken recording, stuck repeating A constellation of stars, out of reach Your image flickers, a bitter defeat Stranded on this cruel desolate beach Drowning in silent alienation Lost, longing for a touch I can't forget Tears from an unspoken proclamation Knowing forever you're no Juliet In flickering candlelight of your shrine Like a moth to a flame, drawn to your fire I find emptiness, an aching decline Consumed by the chase of my own desire Drowning in silent alienation Lost, longing for a touch I can't forget Tears from an unspoken proclamation Knowing forever you're no Juliet Unrequited I take my leave, goodbye Thy drugs are quick. Thus with a kiss I die
