Love causes Oblivion
Love is made out across the world to be a feeling like no other. But is that the entire truth, is love all good things? Along with love comes many other intense emotions.

Towards the end, Romeo goes to the tomb to see Juliet where he runs into Paris. Pairs then threatens to call the police on Romeo for breaking into the tomb, which is when they get into a fight. Romeo then beats Paris and kills him, which though he does not want to be found by the police, still is different than the way Romeo had acted at the beginning before falling in love with Juliet.This is how he affects people without thinking just doing whatever he pleases without considering the serious impacts of his
