Romeo and Juliet... diary entry

28/2/2013

Romeo and Juliet is a tragic tale of love and loss. I cannot help but think that if Romeo and Juliet had just hashed out their problems with others, things may have turned out differently.

In the comments section, I want you to pretend that you are one of the star-crossed lovers. Write a diary entry, in which you pour your heart out. Let your troubles melt away and hopefully we can rewrite this ending!

Dear Diary,

Today I was at home, digging the dirt out my back. I was banished from Verona, for killing Juliets cousin, Tybalt. He had shot Mercutio, and that is why I killed him.The Prince thought I had killed him in cold blood, and banished me.
Earlier on today I seen my cousin from Verona, Balthazar. I thought it was good news, so I was excited to hear from my love, Juliet. She was meant to secretly move out of Verona, with me.
But the news I got from him, was not news I wanted to hear. I was told that Juliet has died. I was shocked, I didn’t know what to do. But instantly I made up my mind. I hopped into the car, without a second thought, Balthazar got in with me. I instantly put the car into gear and flew down the road, tears in my eyes.
I stopped outside the house of a drug dealer. Asked the man for poison. I gave him all the money I had, because I wouldn’t be needing it no more. Balthazar and I got chased all the way to the church, but then I got out, and he drove off, which took most of the Polices attention. I quickly ran inside of the church, where I am writing this from. I explained to Juliets dead body how much I loved her. And how I want to be with her. Then I made my mind.
This is the end.

Today I went to a party and I saw to most beautiful girl in the whole world. I never saw her before .the next day I asked her to marry me she said yes but there was a catch she was a Capulet that’s the people we hate the most but she is a angle she would never harm a fly. the only way we can get married is is secretly because my father wouldn’t allow me to marry her just because she is a Capulet .I think we should all just keep the Pease because I truly love her. I think the only way we would be able to go places together and love each other would be in heaven where nobody could harm me or her.

Romeo and Juliet

I am now married to Romeo and my mother doesn’t know. I have made a huge commitment to get married to Romeo while my father wants me to marry Paris. I go on days and night thinking about Romeo and when he shall come visit me. I don’t know if my decision I have made was right but when you’re in love it seem like all the decisions you make suddenly become right. Romeo has just been sent out of town for killing my cousin in a fight I don’t know whether or not to follow him .Romeo just killed my cousin and I don’t know if I’m mad at him for killing my cousin or because he’s leaving me. Loving Romeo is like finding perfection in imperfection itself. Even when he makes a big mistake I never get mad with him but the more I see him the more I become fond of him. But still I’m here at a tentive conclusion whether I should marry Paris after Romeo leaves. I feel sadness working its way into me day by day but still nobody notices my sadness I suddenly begin to feel imperceptible and alone.

Juliet
Dear diary
Today is the big party. All of my friends will be there. My dad wants to introduce me to Paris. My dad said “he will make me a happy wife “. I am too young to marry or to be with child.
The party got off to a great start. People were singing, dancing and were simply having a good time. Unfortunately my father shouted for me when I stumbled upon what I thought was the love at first sight. I hastily made my way up to my quarters and waited as my father`s footsteps got louder and louder until he stood outside my door. He entered. We spoke briefly about the marriage. I then said to my father “I shall give him a chance but if it does not work out there is nothing I can do”. I left my quarters and went down to the dance floor. As I began to dance my eyes were drawn to a beloved sight. I followed. Our eyes meet through the glass. His eyes bluer than the ocean and with that first glimpse my mother calls me. I am obliged to go to her. As I left I was followed. He spun me around and we shared a kiss. My heart skipped a beat for every second we kissed.

Romeo
Dear diary I love Juliet but our families hate each other. my family is disgusted with their family and so was I until I fell for her. I love her looks , blue eyes and her lips against mine. She is amazing and want to marry her so she will be mine forever. If I do marry her my mother my father and all my friends and cousins will hate me. I don`t care I will marry her as I love her to bits. She is the key to my heart and I hope I am the key to hers. I have to see her again and it will be tonight. I feel she is a magnet and I am the metal, we go so we together. I will tell my friends and see how they feel.
Bye for now diary. ROMEO

Romeo’s Diary Entry
Dear diary today my cousin has given me word of a Capulet party being held in there house. He has also told me my true love will be here I really do not want to go but he said once I see her face compared to all the women in Verona she would look ugly. I doubt to think this is true but I will go any way just to see for myself. I am not looking forward to this event to which I would not like to go to but I am forced by my dear cousin to go. At the party I have seen my true love I did not catch her name but she was so beautiful. At the end of the party she came to me and asked for my name so I asked for her name to. Her name was Juliet Capulet Her family and my family have a feud which has gone on for ever but I will not let a silly feud get in the way of our love. Our love his much stronger than anyone or thing and if they think that they are getting in the way of this there wrong.

DEAR DIARY
My mother wants me to marry a man that I do not love so I secretly married romeo. Only if I had the chance to see romeo everyday like every other couple. I do not like the way I have to sneak out to see him and if he was found with me he would be killed. It would be horrific if he got killed if he was killed I wouldnt be able to live with myself. I am only a teenager and if anything happend to romeo I would be heartbroken. My life would be over if anything happend their would be no point in living. If my mother found out that I was seeing him I wouldnt be able to even move out of my room. If I had a chance to be with romeo I would take it. I has bein the best choice of my life and I will spend the rest of my life with him. The only way I would like to die would be in his arms ....

Oh Romeo... Where is he ... Where is my Romeo? I’m sad , I’m lonely , confused and weak. I need my Romeo , my husband. I feel angry knowing that there is people out there after him trying to kill him. I know he didn’t mean to pull the trigger! I know he was upset and angry. But I still love and miss my Romeo. I feel uncompleted. I feel like a jigsaw with a missing piece. I wish we could just be together again. I wish we could live a nice peaceful life with no one bugging us. He is a sweet innocence boy who did nothing wrong. I just wish I could hold his hand again and run my fingers through is thick soft hair. I just want to run! Run far away from all this mess. I need Romeo. I ask where is he hiding but I never get an answer because they know I would run there. I always lie in bed wondering what he is doing now is he even thinking about me I wonder. We could have a future together if I told my parents we were married but also if I tell them it might go the other way like they don’t care about my happiness they would still go after Romeo they would be mad at me. They would hurt me. I feel like they hate me like they want me to be perfect but I’m not! I am who I am but I not the same since Romeo is gone. I won’t be the same till he is back.! Bye for now.
Juliet.

Dear Diary,
I am upset, frustrated, hurt and very angry. Upset that my husband of a day has been exiled for avenging his best friend after his plead for peace had been ignored, frustrated that nobody apart from the Montagues and I see that what Tybalt did was completely out of line and Romeo’s actions were understandable. I am hurt because my father doesn’t care if I’m happy with Paris. He doesn’t care if I’m in love with him or not, he just wants me to marry him and bear his children, oblivious to what I want. I’m very angry because of the state of society today. I am sick of all the fighting over which house it better! Why can’t everyone open their eyes and see that both Capulet and Montague are brilliant houses that would be stronger together rather than fighting. Instead, everyone seems to think that one must be better than the other and so people are being killed and exiled unnecessarily! Because of this rivalry, Romeo and I have been torn apart. A day doesn’t go by that I don’t think about him. I miss him dearly and I hope he is safe. I pray that soon we will be reunited and my heart’s wound shall be healed. Hopefully, soon, our families will see sense and realize that fighting is only making us weaker. We will become better and stronger together and Romeo and I wouldn’t have to hide.
Until next time, Juliet.

Dear diary
Its been no use my mother will not let me be. She keeps bothering me to leave Juliet alone and when I told her about the proposal she gave me a slap and said do not talk of this taboo again. She is daughter of that foolish carpenter,I cant leave Juliet.She’s one in a million without her is like trying to fly with no wings. Trying to breath with no air,trying to survive without her is dying a thousand times .I dont know how to cope will I ignore my mother and marry her or should I just forget about her besides there are many other girls in all of verona what will i do

Dear diary, once the Capulets approached us, Mercutio was the first one to get into Tybalt’s face. Mercutio was outraged with the Capulets because they had come back to mess with us Montagues. Mercutio and Tybalt immediately started to try and fight. I tried avoiding the fray because Tybalt was now family to me because of my marriage to Juliet. It was hard to try and make peace with the menacing Tybalt. Of all people, it had to be Tybalt. I had to try my best to get on Tybalt’s good side. I plead him out of the kindness of my heart to please leave the place without incident. But the tension was already high. Mercutio and Tybalt drew their daggers and began to fight. I was caught in the middle of the action while Tybalt slashed his dagger under my arm to penetrate Mercutio’s stomach and create a wound. At first, I thought Mercutio was seriously injured. But he managed to get up and say that it was just a scratch. At first, I was relieved to hear Mercutio say this but then I caught a glimpse of his wound. It was a deep gash right under the ribs and Mercutio did not look good. He fell to the ground and a couple moments later, he was dead. In an act of outrage for my lost friend, I attempted to go after Tybalt to get my revenge. I grabbed Mercutio’s dagger and stabbed Tybalt right in the chest. As soon as I did this, I felt instant remorse for I did not know the consequences that would arise from it. I had just slain Tybalt. What would Juliet think? Will she still love me after I murdered her dear cousin? With no time to think, I quickly fled the scene to avoid capture and arrest.

Dear Diary,

My Dear Rosaline Has Not Returned My Love And I Am Confused. I Was So Sure Thaf Our Love Was True, But Time And Time Again She Had Declined My Love. O Why Must I Be Cursed To Love Someone Who Does Not Love Me Back? However, She Has Sworn To Be A Nothing, So She Had Already Betrayed Me. I Must Stop Thinking About Her And Try To Move On But How Can I Fall Out Of Love; I Have Tried So Many Times Already, But Have Not Yet Succeeded. Wait, What Am I Saying? If I Truly Do Love Her Then I Shouldn't Be Trying To Fall Out Of Love With He. If That's True Then Maybe.... I Don't Truly Love Her
