Suicide is a very serious matter that has affected people of all backgrounds for a long period of time. In Webster's dictionary, the proper definition of suicide is: “The act or an instance of taking one's own life voluntarily and intentionally especially by a person of years of discretion and of sound mind.” When victims reaches a breaking point in their lives, they believe that there is no other option, that this difficult period in their lives isn’t going to end. So they tend to choose a very permanent solution that they believe will help solve the problem. That solution is suicide. In Romeo and Juliet, the couple had both reached that point. After Romeo had heard the news that his true love was dead he rushed out to be with her and died in her arms. Juliet then wakes up to see that her one and only was dead.

    The dramatic comedy about love, hatred, bloodshed, and death, The Tragedy of Romeo and Juliet, masterfully conveys the power of boundless love, and bitter abhorrence. In the setting of Verona, Italy, two disputing families fight over a long-forgotten disagreement. Within the walls of each opposing family’s home, live two teens, whose fates are grim, but love is unbinding. They happen to meet, and in the short span of 5 days their utter adoration for each other leads to a sad and premature demise. With strong references to light and darkness, this story powerfully illustrates how perpetual and senseless feuding is immoral, and love that is too strong is rare to end well. When two people are in love, love needs to be contained to a certain extent, or else something even as tragic as Romeo and Juliet’s tale may occur.…
