Oh Helena, how I doth know thy pain Mocked is thine love when at love's feet thrown Love hath looked upon thee with disdain And yet still for him thy love hath grown
Do not despair Cupid's arrow at thine door does knock! Upon thee, loves eyes an awakening will be placed No longer canΒ Β love's spiteful eyes see thee and mock! And to thine love will he quickly rush in haste
But first know before one is to have thy way A comedy must first be struck upon Alas Puck! Disaster hath struck and a game we must all play Before order is once more restored and the past foregone
Oh no! Now a love thrown upon thee unwanted Mockery suspected, no more of this dost thou deserve Evermore another feeling given to thee daunted But now sit back, let the story unfurl and observe!
Finally soft words to thee spoken so craved At once entranced but then felt thee a fool! From nowhere sweet words so spoken must be depraved! And in thine heart feeling loves sting ever so cruel
Now thy dearest friend! Intertwined within such a conspiracy Such betrayal! Dear girl know it is a mistake Albeit twisted and buried in the cruelest irony Thy dearest friend, thine love she does not wish to shake
Through troubles and trials thou maketh thy way to a beautiful field Fast asleep next to the love thy value ever so Puck, fix thy mistake, give Helena her love to finally wield And at last house a mutual love to forever grow
Tribute to Shakespeare's "A Midsummer Night's Dream." Or more directly to Helena. Dear girl <3. First time trying to write in Shakespearean form so if anyone sees errors please feel free to point them out.
