Romeo and Juliet is a tragedy written early in the career of playwright William Shakespeare about two young "star-crossd lovers" whose untimely deaths ultimately unite their feuding families. It was among Shakespeares most popular plays during his lifetime and, along with Hamlet, is one of his most frequently performed plays. Today, the title characters are regarded as archetypal young lovers.
***Once we were shadows.
***When she saw me, she ran to me.
***Then we walked together.
***Sometimes we had different views.
***And she was running away.
***Without her, I felt heavy like a rock.
***And I realized....
***Once we were shadows
***Out of this world, in an endless fall.
