Best Answer

Romeo's single line in this scene is: "Can I go forward when my heart is here? Then back, dull earth, and find thy centre out." Arguably the words "my heart" could refer to Juliet, although he is not talking about Juliet, the girl who is external to him, but of his need to be with her, his desire for her. Romeo places this need at the heart or centre of his being, and says that it is permanently where she is, and that he must move his body, the "dull earth" to where his "centre" is.

It's all about Romeo not about Juliet.

Benvolio is not aware of Juliet's existence. Romeo did not tell Benvolio about his love for Juliet, nor about the fact that he had secretly married her. Benvolio never talks about her: Why should he?

the rising sun, but this becomes ironic because they no longer like the sun/daylight because they cannot see each other until night time
