Wonderful ending to a tragic death in Romeo and Juliet
There are many possible endings for the play, but if I were to write the ending, I would have changed it so that, Romeo comes back and fights Paris and kills him. The fight takes so long that by the time Romeo reaches Juliet, she is about to wake up. When Romeo sees Juliet, he runs and goes hug her. Then Romeo looks at Juliet shockingly and sees the vile in her hand and asks her what had happened. Then Juliet looks at Romeo in a strange way and asks him if he had gotten the letter he had been sent. Then Romeo says that he hadn’t received any letter. Juliet then explains the plan that she had made with Friar and then they hug and kiss each other and cry in joy that they are both well and fine. Romeo then tells Juliet about killing Paris and they both agree that there’s no possible way that the Montegues and the Capulets will ever become friends and that there is no way that Romeo will be allowed to stay in the city anymore. So they decide to run away together. They both flee to Mantua and live there happily ever after. They get four kids, two boys and two girls.
In my opinion, Shakespeare chose a tragic ending for his heroes in Romeo and Juliet to make the story interesting and to make it into something that the reader wouldn’t have expected to happen. Everyone would have expected Romeo and Juliet to have survived and lived happily ever after, but they both ended up dying. This makes the story special and different and leaves the reader shocked after reading the tragedy. I was also shocked when I read that Romeo and Juliet both die. I had expected them both to live happily. And also, Shakespeare wrote a tragedy and all the main characters in a tragedy die.
That was my analysis on why Shakespeare decided such a tragic end for his heroes and how I would have written an alternative
