Light and Darkness
One of the most often repeated image patterns in the play involves the interplay of light and darkness. The integration of the language indicates an important motif overall. Romeo compares Juliet to light throughout the play. Upon first sight of her, Romeo exclaims that she teaches "the torches to burn bright" (I.v.43). She is also "the sun" who can "kill the envious moon" (II.ii.3), and later in this scene, Shakespeare says that her eyes are like "two of the fairest stars in all the heaven" (II.ii.15). But hers is a light that shows best against the darkness; she "hangs upon the cheek of night / As a rich jewel in an Ethiop's ear" (I.v.44-45).
Romeo is also compared with a light that illuminates the darkness; if Juliet dies, she wants Romeo cut "in little stars/And he will make the face of heaven so fine/That all the world will be in love with night/? And pay no worship to the garish sun" (III.ii.22-25). This quote reminds us that their light shines most brightly in the dark - that it is a muted glow associated primarily with stars, torches, and the dawn, rather than with sunlight, which is almost obscenely bright.
Like their love, darkness is associated with mystery, emotion, and imagination. In fact, the day works against them. At the end of their honeymoon night, Romeo says, "More light and light: more dark and dark our woes" (III.v.36); they must part before the light arrived so that he is not caught and killed.
Love.
Well, love probably.
Our love
Communication is important. A+
The song which was the main love theme from Zeffirelli's Romeo and Juliet was known at the time as "What is a Youth" and nowadays is more usually called "A Time for Us"
yes, most stories do
I'm looking for the answer now
A feud rather than a moral weakness destroyed Romeo and Juliet.
Because Juliet was a young teenager whilst Romeo had an unknown age to readers but he was still young. Romeo and Juliet are the main characters of the play hence the name and they fell madly in love with each other.
Its like a Romeo and Juliet theme.
