Well iNever Thought It Would Be That.. When You Hear 'Romance' You Think " Awee! A Love Poem Or Story!!! " Shut Up Its About The Medieval Period Duh (;

" A glooming peace this morning with it brings ; The sun for sorrow will not show his head: Go hence, to have more talk of these sad things; some shall pardon's and some punished: For never was a story of more woe Than this of Juliet and her Romeo "
~Romeo And Juiet By William Shakespear, Donee :)! Beautiful Book iSuggest You Read It<3

"Dream Within A Dream"

Well i Believe Po Is Saying Good Bye To Some One, Or Maybe Himself.. 
Or Maybe He's Reaching Salvation. 
Here He Says " Take this kiss upon the brow!
And, in parting from you now, " 
He's Saying Bye, ithink To Himself. 
Here He Says " Thus much let me avow-
You are not wrong, who deem
That my days have been a dream " 
Here He Thinks Its All A Dream. 
" Yet if hope has flown away
In a night, or in a day,
In a vision, or in none,
Is it therefore the less gone? " 
Here He Says His Hope Is Gone. 
" And I hold within my hand
Grains of the golden sand-
How few! yet how they creep
Through my fingers to the deep, " <--- There I Think He Is Counting All The Things He Has Done. 
" O God! can I not grasp
Them with a tighter clasp?
O God! can I not save
One from the pitiless wave?
Is all that we see or seem
But a dream within a dream? " <--- There He Is Questioning God... Asking Is His Past Was Maybe A Dream.. ?
