Lonely in Love


Why can I never have what I want? My dear friend Hermia is in love with her perfect man, Lysander. Though she has a love, Demetrius chooses her over me. Why must she have two lovers, when I can have none? I love Demetrius, and he used to love me back, for we used to be engaged. We were happy and lived a great life together. Until the day that he spotted eyes for Hermia, and her father requested that she marry him. I have been heartbroken ever since, and wishing for him to love me again. I can never be mad at Hermia though because she has not done anything, and we are best friends. But I do wish to be like her, to be as fair as her, I need her to teach me the ways to win over Demetrius’ heart.
Hermia refuses to marry Demetrius, and for disobeying orders she must be put to death or into a nunnery, and I would never want any of those on Hermia. So Lysander and Hermia told me of their plans to run away together and get married, far away from Athens. I have thought of a great idea to tell Demetrius him what they are planning, and out of love he will follow them. And maybe for my telling of their plans, he will think of me fairer.
