Romeo Montague is one of the title characters in William Shakespeare's tragedy Romeo and Juliet. He serves as the play's male protagonist. Romeo, the son of Montague and his wife, secretly loves and marries Juliet, a member of the rival House of Capulet. Forced into exile by his slaying of Juliet's cousin, Tybalt, in a duel, Romeo commits suicide upon hearing falsely of Juliet's death.
The character's origins can be traced as far back as Pyramus, who appears in Ovid's Metamorphoses, but the first modern incarnation of Romeo is Mariotto in the 33rd of Masuccio Salernitano's Il Novellino (1476). This story was adapted by Luigi da Porto as Giulietta e Romeo (1530), and Shakespeare's main source was an English verse translation of this text by Arthur Brooke. Although both Salernitano and da Porto claimed that their stories had historical basis, there is little evidence that this is the case.
Romeo, an only child like Juliet, is one of the most important characters of the play, and has a consistent presence throughout it. His role as an idealistic lover has led the word "Romeo" to become a synonym for a passionate male lover in various languages. Although often treated as such, it is not clear that "Montague" is a surname in the modern sense.

Alfa Romeo Giulia Quadrifoglio review - Has Alfa finally got it right? | evo DIARIES
The girl across the road lives in a tower
I just dropped by to say hi
then we talked for hours
Life after Death
hopes dreams and wounds
Thursday we'll meet afternoon
She wants to live happily after I'm told.
but Ella how can you you've lost control
but More then the air that I breathe I believe in your soul.
Cause I don't live far away
You and I can live the life of yesterday
She says "take me far away from here,
they will never notice If I disappear, tonight".
Once upon a time in her story they talk of the good life but live contradictory
she speaks of the rules that keep her in chains
She wishes she could live a cliche
Ella lives happily after I'm told
That line of conversation get's old to you
And more then the air that I breathe, I still grieve for your soul.
Cause I don't live far away
You and I can live the life of yesterday.
She says take me far away from here,they will never notice If I disappear.
always afraid that they'll throw away the key
a princess kept in cruel captivity
she asks of the mirror on the wall "what do you see"?
her reflection says here's your enemy.
I don't live far away
You and I can live the life of yesterday
she says take me far away from here
