To Live or to Love

Hi my name is Juliet and I have a big problem! So hear it goes, I have fallen in love with the most handsome guy in the whole world, Romeo. He is kind and caring, but he is the son my family's arch enemies! Prince Escalus warned both of us that bad things would head our way if we fight again. Oh, if my parents found out they would go out on a murdering spree! Then Escalus would condemn anyone else who survives! One now will automatically think that I should no longer see Romeo, but they don't understand that if I do stop seeing him and save my family I may just kill myself. I need someone's help do I choose to protect my family or my heart?

The Nature of Love

She Will Be Loved by Maroon 5

She will be Loved by Maroon 5 is a song about a man who stands by his girl even though she does not do the same for him. In this song this young man is from a whole different world than this young woman. She hangs around with older men, but they do not treat her the way a lady should be treated. He knows that she is not receiving the respect deserved from these outdated not-so-gentlemen so "he catches her when she falls", as said in the song, meaning that he helps her pick up the missing pieces of her messy relationship. Every time she falls he is there to catch her and he wipes the tears from her face time after time. He loves her and she loves him, yet she keeps going back to the wrong man. This, to the audience, can be seen as the nature of love. She was always used to getting material things but never the respect she needed. Now that this kindness is being handed to her in a caring, nurturing way she is lost and confused. The whole time he has another girlfriend but still loves this other women because he knows no one else is. When one isn't loved the right way and then all of a sudden that changes, their view on life changes too (hence; the nature of love). "I don't mind spending every day, out in the cold, in the pouring rain..." this set of lyrics is a perfect example of how he sacrificed for her, yet she just kept leaving him. At the end of the song there are eight words that are sung ever so softly but mean so much. They sing as if he is whispering them to her as she tries to slip away from him for the last time, but he doesn't let her go....."Please don't try so hard to say goodbye......"
