Silly little Romeo

_{Romeo and Juliet isn't a love story; we're not supposed to admire the title characters. Romeo was "in love" with Rosalind a second before he saw Juliet across the room at a party. ? And they needlessly died because they made instant assumptions about each other without thinking things through. It's a story about the impetuosity of people, particularly youthful people, and the harm that can result from this.}

*nodnodnod* I personally get tired of hearing kids think the story is strictly a love story and not a tragedy...

But anyway, this is sadly touching

Hello.

It's true. I never did like Romeo much. They both seemed a bit...airheaded to me. Ah well...

they were both very young and very foolish in my opinion. Quite a waste of life if I do say so myself.

I agree. I suppose that's why it's a tragedy. :c

I just read this again

I just read this again recently, huh. Romeo's so emotionally driven that he dove into things head-first, he pursued Juliet on the balcony and decided to wed her. His uncontrollable emotions resulted in his banishment, and later poisoning himself. While if he waited just a little longer Juliet would have awakened. Juliet was headstrong, when she decided something she went through with it, that also led to her demise in several ways.
There are many different themes to be taken from Romeo and Juliet, depending on perspective. I am personally enthralled by the love they share, but of course the entire thing is tragic in and of itself. If one believes in fate and true love then their demise was inevitable, and I think there's even a point right before Romeo crashes the party that he says in a dream it said his fate will change if he goes to the feast.
Of course, I don't necessarily believe in fate myself. It's all opinion, perspective, and speculation.
Goodness, i love this song. ♥

Anyway, besides my long and silly literary analysis.
I would like to say you are not alone, and that I am here...
but I can't stop you from feeling loneliness. I just hope my company could at least, ease it?
