Picture:
I chose this picture because it represents how their family gets along. It was all Hate, Hate, Hate and then Romeo and Juliet come along and try to change that throughout the book.
Whole (Actually, After-All-the-Action-Happens) Book Songs:
Song: Frost
By: Rachael Sage
I chose this song because, first of all, its a very lugubrious (mournful, dismal, or gloomy) song. The piano solo in the beginning sets the mood, and is mournful. One of the verses goes like this..."The thing that burns me up the most Is how I tried to do the right thing." This relates to the story because Juliet was trying to escape her marriage because she was already married, and didn't want to be disgraceful.
Another verse goes like this...
"The thing that makes me want to scream Is how I tried in vain to fight this I could have plunged headfirst into it But that would have been cruel I crocheted secrets like a blanket I let you think that I was happy We let life fall all around us Like leaves upon the ground Hardly make a sound…" This reminds me of the end because Juliet would be mad because she was trying so hard for her and Romeo to be together and it ended like this. I think she would be saying that she could of fought harder, or even run away.
Song: Jar of Hearts
By: Christina Perri
I think this song relates to the book because I feel that Juliet would be singing this song to the Grim Reaper of love. At first she was enjoying love, and now Love Grim Reaper is ending. The whole song relates to the idea of the Love Grim Reaper, but a verse that reminds me the most is
"And who do you think you are? Runnin' 'round leaving scars And tearing love apart You're gonna catch a cold From the ice inside your soul So don't come back for me Who do you think you are?"
Song: Wings
By: Birdy
This reminds me of the dying scene and the rest of the book because the lyrics would be what Romeo and Juliet are thinking while they are dead (I know it's impossible.) The song starts with lyrics that go like this..." Sunlight comes creeping in. Illuminates our skin We watch the day go by Stories of all we did It made me think of you
It made me think of you." These lyrics remind me of the scene in which they are dead because they just want to be together, and are found dead in the morning.
Another lyric that reminds me of the book is "I just wanna be by your side"because throughout the whole book they just want to be able to be together and not have to hide their love from anybody.
