The young teens focus on romantic love, specifically the intense passion that springs up at first sight between them. Love in Romeo and Juliet is a brutal, powerful emotion that captures individuals and catapults them against their world, and, at times, against themselves. Relationships are also a major focal point of the play, as they are two star struck teenagers with an addiction to each other to the point of Juliet faking a death just to be with Romeo forever. The play, rather than presenting a specific statement of love, portrays the chaos and passion of being in love, combining the themes of love, passion, family, and violence, and how they conflict with each other. Romeo and Juliet’s love, like the love of the youth, is acted upon very quickly and impulsively.
She creates the feeling that passion is an intense emotion that is more mysterious than love could ever be. Passion is an ardent drive, an escape, the fulfillment of fantasy, and it is as mysterious as it is intense. The Storm presents an affair between a married man and a married woman, who know each other from their younger years. The affair is portrayed as a necessary escape from reality. It is the fulfillment of
In the poem “Singh Song!”, the poet uses repetition to show the persona of Singh as being very personal and intimate when he spends the little time that he has with his “newly bride”. The repetition of the word “baby” tells the reader that Singh is happy being married to his wife and that he gives her a high status in his life. The repetition of “my bride” is triple refrained which perhaps suggests that Singh has a surprising nature about his wife. This creates an interesting character as it tells us that he is willing to stop working and go against his father’s orders just to spend time with his wife. Despite the criticism he receives from his customers, Singh seems to hold his wife as a major and main priority in his life and could suggest that his emotional and mental wellbeing depends on his wife.
Time and its effect on love is a widely explored theme in Duffy’s poem, in ‘Hour’ ‘a single hour… makes love rich’ it seems they is never enough whilst in ‘Over’ the memory of their love becomes only but a blush because time is passing. The fire imagery presented by the metaphor of the ‘flushing light, which blazed’ is suggestive of a passionate relationship but along with the repetition of ‘hour’ shows loves susceptibility to time, a fire blazes but always burns out and ‘hour’ shows how short a time they were together, measurable in hours not days
Her husbands, all five of them were teased with sex, but they had to provide luxuries that she desperately craved for. The underlying theme of The Wife of Bath relates to power struggles rather than spousal equality in marriage. The Wife of Bath gives an insight into a hard working semi-independent woman of the Middle Ages. She is semi- independent because she is dependent upon her husbands for material goods. "In the words of the Wife of Bath, God has given women three talents- deceit, weeping, and spinning" (Power 118).
Women begin to think that they will find a perfect man that will hand them the world, that they should dedicate themselves to finding this man, and that they deserve an elaborate story full of passion and desire. This develops conflict with reality, because love stories like the ones we see in the movies are scarce. In the real world, love is tougher, flawed, and it might not end up the way we planned it to. In A Midsummer Night's Dream by William Shakespeare, Helena is obsessed with attaining Demetrius' love. She chases him up to the point of exhaustion, and as much as he tries to avoid her she is persistent.

Although there is a lot of reference to violent and aggressive behaviour it does not make her hesitant, one could even say she was blinded by her love for him. To his coy mistress is a metaphorical poem, where the speaker addresses a woman who has been slow to respond to his sexual requests. In the first stanza he discusses how he would love constantly for an unlimited amount, if only time was not running out. If he could he would give her everything and anything till death. He quickly begins to mention how short life is even referencing her ‘preserved virginity’ being taken when she’s dead as ‘worms shall try.’ He finishes by focusing on the present and telling her to make the most of the time that they have now, which hints at the use of sexual innuendo.
Love According to Browning, Dickinson, Shakespeare and Harris Men and women are very different creatures. We express our emotions differently. Women are typically ready to marry, settle down and have children much earlier than men. Men tend to want to experience life before settling. Yet, there is one thing we have in common.
