To be or not to be?
That is the question.
To die now:
Is a crime to Humanity,
Why not live to offer life?
Like a flower –
Who offers energy and radiance,
But alas –
By loves’ hands,
Will its pedals be plucked,
To die for a game of chance
By telling the person that is taking your life –
Their love won’t love them.
Hope will falter –
That is a cruel life indeed.
To die now, doesn’t seem so wrong now
For life, is nothing but sorrow.

powerful and great. I like how you related it to Shakespeare. I'am reading Romeo and Juliet in School right now. But anyways this was a great write!
Good luck in the contest
