How do you expect
Anyone to write in this
Really weird format?
I love haikus I just thought it would be funny

Yes, hello, doctor, it's been five days  
But I've found that my symptoms haven't gone away.
Lately I've been distracted, and my heart's been racing
Sometimes I think of rings with a heart engraving.

When did this start? When I saw him walk by.
I was heading to my bus, and he waved goodbye.
Such a simple gesture shouldn't cause butterflies---
Please, please, doctor, can you give me advice?

What do you mean, I've fallen in love?
That's a disease I've never heard of.
the first person who ever fell in love was probably like, '???? feelings ????' but then they were like 'yeah this is the kind of **** i live for'

Her laugh was ugly, like a shaven baboon's.
You could hear her cackling all the way to the moon.
She tried to change her laugh into something more pretty,
But found that she couldn't.
What a pity.
nah son my laugh sounds like a gorilla mating with an orangutan

Deep in the desert where no one can see
Is a laboratory named "Area 143."
Like Area 51, it runs government tests
But not about aliens (though that's a good guess).

These facilities created, over the years,
A watch that would stop when your soulmate was near.
From your moment of birth, it would start to count down
To the exact moment when your soulmate was found.

For a while it worked, and all was well.
But a rise in divorce rang the warning bell.
For the watch could not predict that you'd love your mate,
Just someone that you could potentially date.

The CEO of Area 143
Tore his beard out and yelled, "This cannot be!"
He recalled all the watches and then packed them away
To a secret location, where they hide to this day.

But he did not know that other watchmakers
Had stolen the plans for these botched "soul-maters"
Today these copies are still for sale
Some think they do work, from school to jail.

So if you ever meet someone and you see your watch stop
You might have purchased one of these matchmaking flops.
