For those of you who asked for it, here's my "critically-acclaimed"(haha actually teacher acclaimed it but she's really hard to please!) sonnet of Olivia in Act 1, scene 5. In case you don't already know which play Olivia came from, it comes from Twelfth Night by Shakespeare. Hope you like it!
Olivia 1.5
Oh faith, has Cupid come hither to draw
his swift powerful arrow of romance?
I look upon this man with growing awe
as he spoke his ever wonderful chants
I can't help but wish for him to be mine
And to be his, for all eternity
Look at me, acknowledge my open signs
And I prithee, feed thy affinity
I myself have flaws like all others do
"Too proud" and "fair cruelty", I've been named
Yet this I can say and this I know true
I choose whom I love and I'm unashamed
How all this will fadge, only time can tell
Love's indeed like magic, a precious spell...
