In the tragic poem Romeo and Juliet by William Shakespeare uses a wide variety of figurative language to depict Romeo as a suicidal character which helps add tension and suspense to the story.

Shakespeare, the great playwright, has done many things to help him stand out, writing many plays, always keeping the audience on the edge of their seat. This suspense stands out in his play Romeo and Juliet, where he makes suspense through the recurring dramatic irony of Romeo’s and Juliet’s death and the audience wanting to know what’s next. Early on, the audience is clued in on Romeo’s death at many different points in the play. The talk of Romeo’s death is highlighted even in simple talk with Benvolio: “Of despisèd life closed in my breast / By some vile forfeit of an untimely death” (Shakespeare 1.4.117-118).

When Romeo receives the news that his love, Juliet, is dead he is completely shocked. Filled with irrational emotion Romeo takes a vial of poison to kill himself, “Here's to my love… Thy drugs are quick. Thus with a kiss, I die. ”(Shakespeare, 5.3.120).

After learning of Juliet’s ‘death’, Romeo gets poison to kill himself. He goes to the Capulet tomb and says his goodbyes, and his last words before his death were, “Thy drugs are quick. Thus with a kiss I die.” (5.3.120.) Romeo no longer felt the need to live because he ‘lost’ the love of his life.

However, he did not want to go, saying, “Some consequence yet hanging in the stars shall bitterly begin his fearful date (Shakespeare).” Romeo knew that night would lead to his final days. This is one quote that shows the inevitable hand of fate in the play. Obviously Romeo was a very melodramatic character, and in one instance said, “My life were better ended by their hate than death proroguèd, wanting of thy love (Shakespeare).”

Throughout the soliloquy in scene 3, Shakespeare uses juxtapositions and oxymorons to continue creating an undeniable theme of dread and lingering death. An example of this states, “O, give me thy hand, /One writ with me in sour misfortune’s book. /I’ll bury thee in a triumphant grave.” Here, Shakespeare uses the comparison between the words “triumphant” and “grave” to imply that Romeo is facing an incoming death, but has no problems with dying and is planning his own death. The usage of these words together also establishes that death will end up being triumphant over not only Romeo and Juliet, but 4 other characters in the play.

After Romeo found out about Juliet’s death, he impulsively rushed to Juliet’s grave. After neglecting signs that Juliet’s alive, he dramatically ends his own life with poison. Romeo declares with his poison in hand prepared to end his life “Here’s to my love! O true apothecary! /
