William Shakespeare's: Romeo and Juliet

"Romeo and Juliet is one of William Shakespeare's most popular stories which leads to a very tragic ending."


William Shakespeare's Romeo and Juliet is one of the most marvelous piece I've ever read. The lovers have killed themselves just to be with each other. They have proven that death cannot stop their love and cannot separate them away from each other. Their love is so strong that no one or nothing could ever break it. They showed us that "Love endures all things, love never fails." which was one of the good verses in the Bible. Romeo and Juliet really inspires me that having true love is the most precious things here on earth, that love is so strong and everlasting. 

Honestly, I never assumed or expected that Romeo and Juliet will die. It really has a great "twist ending" that readers or writers assumed a story will end one way and the writer twists the ending to surprise or shock the audience. Because the endings of a play or story are mostly predictable.

I really assumed that Juliet will get very sick because of having too much depression for not being with the man she loves, that the only thing that would heal her is seeing Romeo and being with him. And both families, the Capulets and Montagues have sacrificed and set aside their pride and agreed to reconcile for Juliet and Price Escalus have set Romeo free from banishment and their families let them to continue their love freely and both parties, that was once enemies are now in peace. 

But the ending doesn't happen based on how I thought it would be. Instead, it was more spectacular and more dramatic. Which made this Romeo and Juliet be one of the most famous and beautiful piece that has ever written.

No Ordinary Father

Every child deserves to have a father,
But not all children has one.
There are children,
Who haven't even met their father, since they were born.

That's why I consider my self lucky,

To have you in our life,
To have a father like you,
A father who will do everything to protect his daughter and family.

We may not be rich nor

We may not have all the wealth in this world,
But you gave us things 
In which rich people cannot buy.

You've taught us to have fear in God.

You trained us to read the Bible, 
And to believe in God's words
For those times we feel hopeless.

You let us know the importance of God's words,

For these words strengthens us,
Help us to overcome our weakness
And help us to turn away from the devil.

You had given us love and comfort.

You're always there to listen to our problems.
I've known the good life, and I've known the hard way,
But it was you that carried through each rainy day.

Every time I feel weak and hopeless,

I think of you dad.
It's your face that I see
Whenever I am sad.

I know you never wanted 

To see the tears in my eyes,
But its for you
That my heart always cries.

I know you always wanted

To give us all what we want,
All the things that can make us happy
But, dad, its not all the material things that can make people happy.

All I want is you, mom and my siblings.

Having a complete family is like
Having all the expensive things
Here on earth.

So I think, these are enough, for us, for you to raise us.

We don't need money and all the wealth in this world
If we can't be together. 
Material things are nothing without having a complete family.

I will never barter you, just to have all these things.

We are very contented to have you in our family,
And we are very thankful to have a father like you.
Because nothing can incommensurate the love that you had given us.

You are not just a father to me.

You are also my best friend,
A best friend who will never leave me,
A best friend who'll always be there no matter what happens.

Through my darkest days,

You never failed to bring me the light,
And a place where I can shed comfort,
And that place is in your heart.

I love you dad,

We love you very much.
All I can wish is to live with you 
For a thousand more years.

No Other Hero

You are the first person,
Who has ever risked a life for me, mom.
You never thought of yourself,
You never thought of the pain, and how hard it was.

Your love is very unconditional,

That no one could ever replace you in my heart.
You never thought of your life,
Instead, you prepared yourself to die, as you were giving birth to me.

You served as my crutches, during those times I can't stand alone.

You always let me feel that, 
You are always here beside me,
When no one seems to care.

All your life, you always set aside your own happiness 

In order to fulfill mine,
I am always your priority,
That you have forgotten to take good care of yourself. 

When I am feeling down or lonely,

The warmth of your embrace strengthens me.
You served as my wall and protection
To those who wants to harm me.

And now that I am a fourteen year old girl,

I know I'd given you a lot of stresses and head aches.
I always disobeyed you, hurt your feelings,
And I let you feel you're not important to me, and I don't love you the way you do.

But, you'd never given up on me.

Instead, you always let me feel you love me very much.
That I am the most precious treasure here on earth.
Even though I made you feel things that you never deserved.

Your love is incomparable,

Just like God's
You love me unselfishly 
Without expecting anything in return.

So, to all these risks and sacrifices you've done for me,

I promise you that one day, you'll be proud of me.
That these obstacles you'd faced for raising me
Are not worthless.

When you get too old,

I'll be the one to take care of you, and
I'll be you're crutches when you can't walk anymore
Just like you did to me when I was a little girl.

And I know, one day, you'll pee in your pants,

And act like a little child again. But I promise you, I'll never leave you.
I will never give up on you,
I will never get tired for taking good care of you.

I see you there in front of me 
You're cute face, lovely eyes and smile
I hear your beautiful voice telling something
About your hopes, dreams and lies.

We walked in a sunlit trail
Together hand in hand
Thinking that this would be forever
And nothing could break us apart.

Before long were soaring
Defying gravity
Before long were bouncing
Up higher than the sky.

And you were like the stars,
That used to twinkle in the dark night sky
Which helps me find my way when I'm lost in the dark,
You were the brightest of them all

When were together my pulse races,
Higher and higher we soar as one
Like two bright ribbons that intertwined
And I thought nothing on earth will stop our fun

Then suddenly twilight came,
And now you were gone
And now alone I stand
In the middle of a dark forest

The woods are cold, the trees are black
The dark is closing in
And you were gone away from me,
Your faultless light has dimmed

Betrayal is an empty space 
Raw night, cold room, alone
And no one can redeem your face
Sweet knight, safe life, you're gone.

This sweet dream turned into a nightmare
That brings me to the realization
That the love that I thought was real is only a dream
Once I wake up it'll be gone... completely gone

I thought fairytales do come true
But it does'nt
And dreams are full of shit
Because dreams are only meant for sleeping with the truth.

But I still believe 
That my life could be a like a fairytale, a perfect fantasy
Everyday a new adventure on some undiscovered shore
Was it nothing more than a dream?


One magic night with a single dance
I found more than just a storybook romance 
And once my life was perfect as we glided 'cross the floor
And it was so much more than a dream

I could say it never happened
Just a dream from the start
But then I'd live my life
With a broken heart
