Love is a very strong thing and nothing can stop it. Love can lead people to unthinkable
outcomes, but there is nothing that can brake it. Not even a very big conflict between the families of
a couple, like in Romeo and Juliet by William Shakespeare. The story takes place in Italian city of
Verona, where Romeo of Montagues and Juliet of Capulets fall in love with each other. The
problem is that two families are in a conflict for a long time. It prevents Romeo and Juliet normally
being together. They have to hide their love in secret or face dishonor. Something bad has to happen
to them, which both families would regret. Romeo and Juliet’s love was doomed.
The conflict between the two families prevents Romeo and Juliet from freely being together,
making their love doomed. Juliet thought that either Romeo or she would have to refuse the families
name to be able to love each other freely. After the Capulet’s feast, Juliet talks to herself:
O Romeo, Romeo! Wherefore art thou Romeo?
Deny thy father, and refuse thy name;
Or if thou wilt not, be but sworn my love,
And I’ll no longer be a Capulet. (II, ii, 33-36)
Juliet says those lines, because she understands that neither Montagues, nor Capulets will be happy
with their love. Romeo and Juliet will have to hide their love or one will have to refuse the name of
a family. Tybalt calls Romeo a villain, because of his family name, even though Romeo has never
done anything bad to Capulets. When Tybalt sees Romeo on a street, the day after the feast and
says, “ ‘Romeo, the love I bear thee can afford no better term than this – thou art a villain.’ ” (III, i,
59-60) Tybalt hates Montagues including those that done nothing to Capulets. Romeo was never in a
fight between the two families, but Tybalt still hates him for being a Montague. Nothing will change
Capulets opinion of Montagues, not even love of their children. The conflict is so big, that Romeo
and Juliet have to be together in secrecy, making their love doomed.
Whenever Romeo sees Juliet, he forgets all his troubles. Romeo was always hiding from
one’s eye, he always wanted to be alone. There was nothing in the world that would make him
happy or make him forget everything, until he met Juliet. She was like a light for him, breaking
through the gloom darkness. When Romeo saw Juliet after the feast he said, “ ‘It is the east and
Juliet is the sun! Arise, fair sun, and kill the envious moon.’ ” (II, i, 3-4) Everything surrounding
Romeo is like an envious moon, it is all troubles around him. While Juliet is like a fair sun, it’s a
light that brakes through that darkness and makes Romeo happy. Without Juliet, he would have only
troubles around him and no happiness. Romeo loves her so much, that nothing else will make all the
troubles go away. Romeo does not care about anything else; all he needs is his happiness – Juliet.
When Friar Lawrence told Romeo that his punishment for killing Tybalt was banishment form
Verona, Romeo called it a torture. He said:
Tis, torture, and not mercy. Heaven is here,
Where Juliet lives; and every cat and dog
And little mouse, every unworthy thing,
Live here in heaven and may look on her. (III, iii, 29-32)
Romeo cannot live without Juliet, because being with her is like heaven, while being without her is
like torture. He loves Juliet so much that heaven for Romeo is a place where she lives. Being
banished from Verona, means being without Juliet, which is torture to him. She is like a light,
around Romeo’s darkness and without that light he will die. Whenever Romeo sees Juliet, she
makes him forget all the troubles that Romeo faces.
Romeo and Juliet cannot live one without the other and if they will not be able to be together
something tragic will happen. Juliet was giving Romeo the only happiness in his life and when
Balthasar told him that Juliet died, Romeo made up his mind without any hesitation:
Well Juliet, I will lie with thee tonight.
Let’s see for means. O mischief, thou art swift
To enter in the thoughts of desperate men. (V, i, 34-36)
He did not even think about finding another love or thinking how his family would react to this.
Romeo decided to commit suicide and join Juliet in heaven straight away. That was his only choice,
because Romeo could not live without her. There would be no reason for him to live, when his love
Juliet was not near him. Juliet would not be able to live without Romeo as well. When she wakes up
after a 2 day sleep, Juliet sees Romeo lying dead on the floor and she immediately decides to do the
same, “ ‘Yea, noise? Then I’ll be brief. O happy dagger!’ picks up a dagger ‘This is thy sheath;’
stabs herself ‘there rust, and let me die’ Juliet dies.” (V, iii, 168-169) Juliet understands that there is
no need for her to live, because the only person she loves is dead. So to be with Romeo, Juliet
decides to kill herself and unite again with him in heavens. Capulet could find someone else for
Juliet to marry, but her only love was with Romeo, and without him she would die of grief. Juliet
decides to save herself from torture and be again with Romeo. The couple cannot live one without
the other if they will not be able to be together something tragic will happen.
Romeo and Juliet loved each other so much, that they had to be with each other to be happy.
If they got separated, it would be like hell for them. The conflict between the Montagues and
Capulets prevented Romeo and Juliet from being normally together. It was taking away the
happiness from them. Romeo and Juliet’s love was doomed. If something happened to one of them,
the other would have to suffer as well. If one of them died, the other would also die. Romeo and
Juliet loved each other so much, that all they could think of is being together. But a very big conflict
stood in their way, which could not be stopped even by their love.
