Monologue From Shakespeare's Romeo And Juliet

I sit her asking myself, how could I let this happen to my little girl. I am her mother, I am supposed to pick her up when she is down, I am supposed to help her through rough times, but most of all I’m supposed to protect her and keep her out of harm’s way! I just can’t believe I didn’t see it, didn’t realise what was going on, I should have locked her in her room until the wedding if I had done that then maybe... maybe she’d still be here, she’d be unhappy but she would be here, alive! I still can’t get over the fact that my little girl is now and angel floating up above. I know she will be looking down on me hopefully with feelings of only love and happiness and not feelings of hate and disappointment I have faith that one day in the future we will meet again and with any luck by then she can forgive me for letting her father force this wedding on her, maybe this was all my fault! …show more content…

Their stupid son fell in love with my daughter and then tricked her into liking him, with the help of that idiot friar Laurance! Now look at the result of what happens when our families mix death and me and my husband are left with an enormous whole in our hearts that will never vanish. So even though Lady Montague says that the death of my daughter and her son was a sign that our two families should end this feud before anymore death occurs, but it’s too late for that I have already lost my daughter and my sweet Tybalt so no I’m not ready to make nice, I’m not ready to back down I’m still mad as hell and can’t bring myself to do what it is they think I should it’s too late to make it
