Looking...

She looks for her Romeo,
Knowing she can't have him.
The pain in her heart is excruciating,
As she realizes, with dismay, that she has to tell him.
She plays the song Love Story by Taylor Swift,
Over and over again.

He looks for his Juliet,
Knowing she won't want him.
He turns to other guys, in fear that no one else will care for him,
He's depressed and he can't tell his mother and father,
Otherwise they'll kick him out onto the streets.
He plays the song Here In Your Arms by Hellogoodbye,
Over and over again.

She looks for her Romeo,
But she sees him on the bus every day.
As they're going to school,
She slumps in her seat as he talks to another girl.
So she turns on her iPod,
And blasts the song You Belong With Me by Taylor Swift,
Over and over again.

He looks for his Juliet,
But he's confused, and he feels no one would love him back.
He talks to this other girl, and he realizes that she doesn't satisfy his craving,
So he plays the song Break by Three Days Grace,
In his head,
Over and over again.

She looks for her Romeo,
She's finally had enough.
She calls him up,
And tells him they need to talk.

He looks for his Juliet,
And he's surprised when his phone rings.
He answers,
And she tells him what he's been wanting to hear all along.

She looks for her Romeo,
Her heart stops as he tells her he feels the same way.
She rushes over to his house,
And gives him the biggest bear hug in the universe.

He looks for his Juliet,
He answers the door and hugs her back.
He starts to cry,
She starts to cry,
Their search is over.

She found her Romeo,

He found his Juliet,

And they live together,

Happily ever after.

To my best friend,
I want him to know how much I want him to be my Romeo...
