Lysander

Here I am with my love Lysander with Demetrius both fighting over who should marry me. I have always been mean to him, treating him like he was not there and he still loves me. He does not interpret that I love Lysander. I wish Helena and Demetrius would be together. Why am I the one being fought over? I see my dad going to the duke to say something but what. The duke comes up to me and says “You have to marry Demetrius.” He said “But sir my love is for Lysander and I should be able to choose who I get to marry.” “You either marry him or die.” I genuinely wish that Helena and Demetrius would get back together they were dating but then he started to like me more than her; I anticipated.

the play, speak about their upcoming wedding. They—no doubt—await for it with great excitement, but at the same time, there is a slight feeling of estrangement between the parties. Theseus expresses this by saying, “Hippolyta, I wooed thee with my sword And won thy love doing thee injuries. But I will wed thee in another key, With pomp, with triumph, and with reveling” (Shakespeare 1-2). Another example can be seen through the discourse between Hermia and Lysander.

Did you miss me.....the way his deep and smooth voice said that made my legs feel like they were jelly as I grab a hold of Lysander. I felt my foot step ahead one after the other as I realize I was running towards him, arms wide apart reaching forward to him. I launched myself to him arms wrapping around his throat and the feeling of his strong arms wrapping themselves around my body.
