I know Romeo and Juliet is such a cliche-d tragedy. People claim to love it so much, and in this blog I would too only because I know what Romeo and Juliet is about. In high school, we dissected what we could of the script and I found it so amusing that there were so much underlying statements in each act. I love how Shakespeare had me reading through the lines.
Romeo and Juliet's love story was truly one of a kind. A whirlwind romance it was indeed. Their love story broke my heart. I know it isn't realistic, but it's still nice to know that people died for reasons they believed was right. It was admirable that though Romeo had his shortcomings, don't we all?, he fought for the love of his life, with his life. And though Julieta was going against the will of her father, actually the whole family, I loved that she fought the same battle that Romeo did. I love how they really fought for their love.
But I hate that all they had were a few seconds, Romeo was even suffering, together, for the last time. Had Juliet not shock Romeo, he probably would have not died yet, but it wouldn't be Romeo and Juliet. Painfully heartbreaking.
I wish to find my Romeo someday, someone imperfect but would believe in our love and fight for it with me. One day I will be a Juliet to a man who has been praying for a love that's true too!
