Monologue Between Romeo And Juliet
Scene 1. Mantua. A street.

{Enter Romeo}

Romeo: If I can trust the good dreams I had last night, then something wonderful is about to happen. My heart is full of love, and I’ve felt on top of the world since I got out of bed today. I had a dream that my love found me dead! Quite odd, dreaming from a dead man’s perspective. She kissed me, and suddenly, I was alive again! Alive as a king! It’d be amazing to have the woman I love, considering the thought of love makes me feel so happy.

{Enter Romeo’s man, Balthasar, booted.}

Is there news from Verona? How is it, Balthasar? Are there any letters from the friar? Is my wife okay? How is my father doing? Is Juliet doing well? I asked twice, because nothing can be wrong as long as Juliet is alright.

Her body is resting in the Capulet family tomb, and she will spend the rest of eternity among the angels in Heaven. I saw her in the tomb, and came back as soon as possible to deliver the news. I feel awful for having to share such horrible news, but it is my job, sir.

Romeo: Is that really true? Screw you, stars! You know

How? Dark thoughts come to those who let them in. I recall a pharmacist who isn’t too far from me. He wears rags for clothes and has caterpillar eyebrows. All his medicine is herbal. He’s old and poor and seems to barely be hanging onto life. He had some strange animals hanging up in his shop. There were some empty boxes, green pots, and musty seeds. There was some strings and mashed flowers on display, as well. As I noticed his poverty, I thought to myself, “If someone needed poison-” which, you would be killed for in Mantua, “-here is a poor soul who would sell it for you.” I mean, I already had this thought before your death, but I assume this same guy probably sells it. If I remember right, this should be the place. But since today is a holiday, I doubt it’s open. Hey, dude who runs the

    It kind of falls into whether or not you believe in love at first sight. I personally believe that it was infactuation, or, moreover, lust. Romeo was already "in love" with someone when he met Juliet, and yet, he was instantly swept away by her beauty. They aparently loved each other before they even spoke with each other. I dont think that true love works this way. Obviously, there has to be some kind of connection at the beginning, but a couple cant fall in love on sight and already kiss twice within the first five minutes and know, instantly, that you want to marry this person. Obviously, things were different and simpler back then, but still, there have to be a few steps to take in a relationship. They were about to get married and ditch botht heir families for each other without knowing anything about their partner.…

    According to Duff Brenna, “All literature shows us the power of emotion. It is emotion, not reason, which motivates characters in literature.” This is demonstrated in The Tragedy of Romeo and Juliet and Of Mice and Men. Human beings are often driven by their emotions or passions. Sometimes their actions defy sound reason or judgment. However, due to the emotions that the individuals might be experiencing at that time, their initial response is usually impulsive. I agree Duff Brenna in her assessment of how characters in literature are motivated by their raging emotions and not by reason, common sense or wisdom. One cannot merely act upon how they feel, especially if those emotions are negatives. Negatives emotions, if acted upon, will lead to negative actions; whereas positive emotions will leads to positive actions.…

    It’s not uncommon for young children to look up to their elders for advice or guidance in a tough situation, but being misguided in a conflict can lead to an even larger predicament. In the play Romeo and Juliet by William Shakespeare, the death of main characters can be rooted at the deluded advice from supposedly wise mentors. These mentors were Friar Lawrence and the Nurse, whose intentions were pure, but whose advice could be considered otherwise. Friar Lawrence and the Nurse unintentionally mislead Romeo and Juliet, which ultimately was the driving force behind the extreme actions they made throughout the play. This misleading advice is shown when Friar Lawrence marries Romeo and Juliet, when the Nurse gives Juliet marriage advice, and when Friar Lawrence convinced Juliet to fake her death.…

    The word "adult" is usually thought of as a guardian or a matured person. They see an adult as someone who takes the responsibility of taking care of a child. However, not all the adults take care of the child even though it's their responsibility to do so. For the truth is, if adults abandon the child, he or she will eventually become a delinquent. In Romeo and Juliet, by William Shakespeare, adult interference is to be blamed for the deaths of secret lovers.…

    However, if those questions are to go unanswered, I believe it may be necessary for me to ask one final question: “Is it possible to appreciate and believe in true love within the walls of Verona, knowing all too well what the outcome was for the first two people who did so?” By reflecting upon this heartbreaking outcome for both late Master Romeo Montague and Lady Juliet Capulet, it is fair to believe that both he and she would want others, to be able to go forth and receive the will to love freely, knowing there are no consequences if they were to do so.…

We spent our first night together and we spent it well doing what most people do on their honeymoon, being together. Damn you Tybalt, why did do you do what you did; if only you knew we were family would that have made a difference? Would that let me slip from banishment?
