Romeo, I am not Juliet

Info

Romeo,

I am not Juliet. I am not as brave as her to fight the love she believe. Though I wanted to be with you, I can't ranaway with you. Because I am not her. I am not Juliet.

But I am poison that can kill you or the dagger that can take you away from  Juliet. I am the one that can cause you pain.

I cannot die for you but I love you too much, that if I am the dagger and the poison that can free you to be with your Juliet, then use me. Killing you kills me. Drink me and I too will disappear. Stab yourself, and I will be stained. Hurting you, hurts me. But I want you to live. Watch you breathe as you fall asleep

Romeo, I am not Juliet. I am not going to die for you. Instead, I will live so you can live. The world is harsh. It will try to separate you from me but I will be strong enough that we don't need to shed blood. We will not ranaway and escape. We will not hide.  I will hold your hand and be with you to face the crowd.

Romeo, I am not Juliet. I am me. I am different.
If I am not her, will you still let me in?
