Do Tell Me Now

What should I do when love insistently
Remains like fire in my veins
And swallows me whole, indeed,
Besides, what Julietta did,

Besides, what Romeo repeated?
With modern style and deepened wit
How do I aim my best at it,
Aloof or suddenly upbeat?

Should I run forward, losing all
That keeps me back? Should I revolt
Or let it be just barely breathing,
Just poorly sparkling, take the beating,

And fall, and frailly remain waiting
Until it stirs my heart again
To mend the undeserved pain,
To flirt with the grief of wounded eyes?

What should I do? Do tell me now
While fire is burning all aglow.
