Romeo and Juliet is a story of love, a force of fate, leading its protagonists unalterably toward inevitable death. It’s the passion and care between Romeo and Juliet that is so beautiful. The love between Romeo and Juliet is extremely strong, and it’s such an amazing bond, but it’s not pure love.

But to Romeo, she’s the world.“Oh, she doth teach the torches to burn bright” (1.5.40). Romeo is so distracted and obsessed with how Juliet is so “hot”, she shows the torches to be bright, to him she is the brightness of the fire. Romeo thinks Juliet is the one and only pretty girl at the dance she is better than Rosaline could ever have
