‘Romeo, Romeo! Wherefore art thou Romeo?‘
(Romeo and Juliet, Act 2, Scene 2)
By Shakespeare

that night they were to meet
but Romeo got cold feet

on Valentines Day
he went away

Romeo was afraid to commit
because he would have to submit

her sweet exterior 
hid her real demeanor

she passed herself as shy and sweet
but he knew he would take a back seat

so, he sent her a short letter
saying “I’m outta here!”
