Once upon a time 
In a land far away
A Baby was born
On a bright winter’s day

He was a happy baby
His laughter quite the treat
He was perfect from his head
To the bottom of his feet

He was born a Prince
So they wanted a regal name
The Queen called...

To many things unknown to me
So many realities I fail to see

To love and it's boundless effects
Which leaves many with confusion and deep regrets

To the search for answers in places unthinkable
In light of harsh and foolish words unspeakable

To the glaze of your eyes through summer...

By this time I was so used to falling asleep in the worlds most uncomfortable chairs that could be found on any floor of the hospital I was at with my mom

With my eyes closed I could hear a little girl singing in the hallway...

Smiling, it squirts its juices, 
delighting in matchmaking,
just like Cupid, whose misaimed arrow, 
it recalls, once struck it.

Lucentio and Bianca:
a happy match;
they owe much to it, it knows.
Lysander and Hermia;
Demetrius and Helena…
well, they eventually thanked it too.

But Queen Titania and Bottom…
Love-in-Idleness giggles
 …A flower has...

She is the gentlemen’s ultimate one dream girl,

She is a rogue who pompously goes the world in a swirl.

She is so called to be the best Queen Bee of all,

Oh spite, oh hell – to the Hell in my own name too!
The hell in love, the hell in romance, the hell of all men!
He being in my name as well of course… as if I’m made of men!
Do they control me? Na… funnily enough...

Hermia and Helena are ready to fight each other.
The same can be said for Demetrius and Lysander.
To keep this party of four from throwing a fist,
I will cover them all with a thick morning mist.
They will fruitlessly chase each other without a doubt.
Each one will...

My green in white snow
Snow blanket on your red scarf
Quake in your pockets

My nuggets of snow
Seeking handfuls of red warmth
Your hibiscus glow

Cool snow embracing
You redden further in flame
Jingle steps in veins

Let snow melt in joy
Let beauty come out dimpling
Our neurons mingling

Told To Fit Mold

Now worn down and things are growing old;
Affirmative Actions forces us to fit a mold;
Forced to do;
Both me and you;

Lysander, my father's decision does not favor us.
By law, he wants me to marry Demetrius.
If I do not marry him, it's either death or chastity.
Lysander, I love you.  You're the only one for me.
Tonight, let's meet in the woods and leave this city.
Away from...

I've seen a few murders with the naked eye.
And if you're reading this poem no need to be surprised why.
The streets had me blind since I was 11 years old.
And now at the age 27 I need to make sure all my stories get told.
The...

Puck, being a dummy is something you can't deny.
You took that flower's nectar, and put it on the wrong guy.

Now, he has fallen in love with the other woman, Helena.
Helena has two lovers; Demetrius and Lysander whom...
