Romeo's letter to Juliet (Kisum)

Dear My Cherished Juliet,

I am extremely sorry on the terrible sin I have done to you, I part your pain with me as I leave Verona, my home, my family and dearest of all you. I can never get rid of the thought of you in my mind, your mesmerizing beauty, your loving kindness. I am exceedingly sorry on the great pain that I caused you… and especially soon after our wedding.

I believe that Tybalt, your dearest cousin challenged me to a fight; I just wanted to have peace, nothing to get me involved into any trouble, which is the reason I declined the challenge. I had done this to not hurt you; I just wanted to get your family to like me, that’s all. When I had met Tybalt, he immediately raised his sword and pointed it to my neck; his sword was polished till I could see my own reflection on the edges waiting to get unclean with blood. My good friend Mercutio had not let me down and stood up to me but soon was slain to the ground with not a sound heard from again. That made me very angry, and could feel the fire burning in my eyes. The next thing I knew was holding a sword covered with blood and two dead bodies on the ground, one my good friend Mercutio, the other your beloved cousin, Tybalt.

Now, you are my only light in total darkness, the only angel in all of hell. All I am asking for is just your forgiveness and love which can awake me from this long lasting nightmare.

Love Romeo,

Your dear and loving husband

Dear juliet seaho

Dear Juliet,

I am terribly sorry about slaughtering you cousin, Tybalt in a duel to the death. I in fact regret doing that with all my heart. I just couldn’t control myself since Tybalt kept on insulting me, which triggered my anger. You know how that feels don’t you darling?

Well nevertheless I hope you understand that I tried to avoid this fight as much as possible. Even though Tybalt was about to slash his razor-sharp sword at me, but I never gave up hope trying to make a relationship or connection with Tybalt since we have married then I have to and, will accept Tybalt as a family member.

Additionally my cherished Juliet I only got involved in the battle after my dear friend Mercusio was injured when he fought Tybalt. Now I know my prized Juliet that even though he was my best friend he was not a Capulet or Montague, thus as a result he was just an innocent person that was murdered by your cousin Tybalt. So don’t you think I had to so something about it?

Well my sweetheart do you forgive me? Well it would be fine if you don’t enlighten me with your beautiful voice for forgiveness. However, you must know that I will always treasure you in my heart and there will always be a warm welcome if you come back to me.

Love, Romeo

Romeo's letter to Juliet - Jenny

My dearest wife Juliet

The only person that I need next to me right now is you my sunshine. I miss you and love you so. Oh my sunshine, my angel, please read this letter and give me one more chance to ask you to forgive me. I know I have slew your dearest cousin. But, it was an accident that I slew him. I swear I never really meant to kill your cousin, Tybalt. Yesterday, Tybalt challenged me a duel. I told him that I don't want to have a fight with him and that I love him, I have to love him even if he doesn't believe me. He wanted me to tell him the reason why I have to love him and I couldn't say that it's because his cousin, Juliet is married to me secretly without telling other people about the marriage. So, I tried as hard as I could to avoid the duel with him. But, he called me a villain and a coward. I still tried not to get furious at each word that Tybalt was saying to insult me...because, he's your, my angel's cousin. But then, my dearest friend, Mercutio started to fight with Tybalt....and the result of the duel was that...Mercutio died..Tybalt slew him. Mercutio was my best friend and he was slew by Tybalt. I was so mad by then, and I started fighting Tybalt back. When my other friend Benvolio stopped me...everything was gone too far. When I came back to my senses...I saw Tybalt dead infront of me. PLEASE, forgive me fot this. I know I sound like a coward...but, please...Juliet give me another chance to prove my love to you. I didn't know what I was doing..I was just very furious about Mercutio's death and the anger took over me. Juliet, I beg you..please don't think that my love to you wasn't true because, you are the only one that my heart appertains to. I'm so sorry about what happened...but, please undesrtand the fact that I never meant to slew your dearest cousin. I love you Juliet, my angel.

Lots of love from your dearest husband

Romeo's Letter to Juliet

Dear My Beloved Juliet,
Today I have made a terrible isn that has never been done before in Verona. I never had any intentions or desire to do this honestly. The sin that will follow me to hell that I just cannot admit or realize what I've done at all. I've done th impossible that most people of this town won't believe. My dearest angel, my dove.... please don't make any rash judgements from what you've heard from everyone elase. So please finish reading this letter then you will know.

Of course I did not want to fight just after we had married which was the best thing that could have ever happened to me. I didn't want to ruin that amazing day of finally being with you forever. However, Tybalt called me a villian shortly after our secret marriage, he then dueled me to a fight. I had to refuse, he is your cousing which would technically make him my cousin-in-law, a part of my family. I didn't to spill any blood at all between our families especially in that position also after Prince Escalus had warned us. Then instead of me in the duel, it was my companion, Mercutio that was in the fight. Of course I had no intentions of fighting let alone my best friend fight for me as well. I tried to stop them.... I really tried... But they were too ferocious and I was just too late... Mercutio was injured soon by Tybalt's dangerous blade.

I was soon engaged with anger. I couldn't control myself on what I should do next. My loyal best friend, laying on the floor right beside my feet. I was trembling in fear an in anger. After Mercutio was stabbed with Tybalt's blade, he fled away then soon came back for more. Though I was angered, I still had you in my mind.... I didn't want to fight honestly!! So I tried my best to defend myself..... In the eng.... I somehow managed to win.... but.... I had slain my own family member.... I'm so sorry.....I'm truly really...really... sorry. I didn't mean to do it! Honestly! I speak by the name of god, I didn't mean to do it! So please just forgive me this once... Please...

Romeo's letter to Juliet- Kimberley

My dearest Juliet,

I love you more that anything and i can never get you out of my mind. My saint, my angel, please read this letter before you make any assumptions. I cannot even begin to express how sorrowful I am. Yesterday, Tybalt challenged me to a duel, calling me villain. I declined, I wanted to avoid any violence or trouble, and he is your family, I would never, never do anything to hurt you... but Mercutio fought Tybalt instead, and I honestly tried to stop it... but it was too late. Mercutio was fatally injured by Tybalt. Only then did I become involved in the fight, Tybalt killed the prince's kin, my dear friend! So he dueled me and well... I tried to defend myself but I won in the end. Please, Please, I didn't know what I was doing.. Please... The anger had eaten me up... but it has now spat me out. I have regained my senses again, when I look back on what I did, I deeply regret my actions... Please forgive me, you know how much I love you..

From your loving husband,

Romeo
