Juliet’s Monologue

My love for Romeo is so strong. The feeling, the passion between us is overpowering. I know that we can’t be together but why does this heart ache to see him? To hold him, side by side sitting there together, it’s so magical that only Romeo and I can see this.

I think, also that knowing that it is wrong to be in love with my family’s enemy, excites this heart even more. But how do you distinguish from right to wrong? Is it wrong to want to feel loved? Is it wrong to be happy?

Without their approval…it’s better to die than to live the life where my family are ashamed of me.

These feelings are coming straight from my heart, only I know what I feel. You are the one person who I can ...
