In My Heart, There Must Be Warning

Thou's love
Shall exceed eternity.
Appearing so precious
To the nearest touch.
Yet known to truthfully be deathly.
Venomous.
Poisoned silk.
Sought only by a Miss,
With halt of a mind,
Tied with a kiss.
Thy pray, say often
Yet prey must soften.
For reasons unbearable,
Be cautious, my love.
Illusions of a caress
Leads to a fallen-down abyss.

Inspired by love and life. Shakespeare's Romeo and Juliet has been looked down on by the outsider, whom gives each a warning.
