What is love

Dear Diary:
"Why, such is love's transgression , griefs of mine own lie heavy in my breast, which thou wilt propagate  to have it pressed with more of thine.
This love that thou hast shown doth add more grief,  to too much of my own.
Love is a smoke made with the fume of sighs, being perged,  a fire sparkling in lovers'  eyes.
Being vexed, a sea nourished with lovers' tears.
What is it else?A madness most discreet, 
A choking gall and a preserving sweet.
I hate love. Love makes me lose my mind! Why did Rosaline refuse me? I have wealth, looks, and everything a girl needs, but she says she wants to remain chaste! Benvolio  says that I should look else where. He said and I quote
"By giving liberty unto thine eyes:
Examine other beauties."
I guess he wants me to forget fair Rosaline and pay attention to other women out there. It's really easy for him to say this, because he has not been in love, only lust. I don't think I can leave her. Love is truly a beast hiding inside the sweet form of love.
Well I must go now Benvolio, and Mercutio have cooked up yet another scheme! I shall see whether  I laugh or frown. I bid thou adeu for now.

Dear diary,
Today I crashed the Capulet party. I went for Rosaline, but I found a new beauty. Her name is Juliet,  she is the most beautiful girl I have ever seen.
"Oh she doth teach the torches to burn bright! It seems she hangs upon the cheek of night as a rich jewel in an Ethiopia ear, beauty too rich for use, for earth too dear. So shows a snowy dove troop in with crows, as yonder lady o'er her fellow shows:
the measure done, I'll watch her place of  stand
And, touching hers, make blessed my rude hand.
Did my heart love till now? Forswear it, sight,
For I never saw true beauty till this night."
I have never loved before, I know now that what I felt for Rosaline was nothing but lust. Juliet is my one true love.

If I didn't have Juliet then I wouldn't know what love really is. I would still be hung up on Rosaline and still not having a chance with her. I would probably want to die. I wouldn't even want to be hung up on Rosaline. That would be too much! 
Love, is an amazing thing. I desire a girl who loves me, and who wouldn't mind having sex with me. "I have not yet stabbed her with my knife." 
With my other relationships, I have not really been in love. All I wanted from Rosaline was her, and her chastity! 
I need love, that is what I need. If I need to, I will put love before family and friends. She is the one I really need, no one else!

  6. I like how much detail you put into this. I also like that it's work from both you and Anu. Romeo seems like a really confused character, is he hard to interpret?

  7. I like the idea of a diary; it makes it a lot easier to read, and I love how it actually sounded like Romeo was speaking.
