I just got done watching Grand Hotel! Boy, what a rollercoaster! Really great plot, really beautiful love story (though there's quite a bit of scandal, so I endured that bull for the sake of the excellent murder mysteries and heroic story arcs. But if immortality is not your cup of tea, skip it. I personally hated how they represented catholicism. Like dudes don't act all Christian then commit a mortal sin the next day, acting like its no biggy as long as you're not caught! Like, if you believe in God, you know He's WATCHING! Ugh. But I digress, it is definitely more focussed on the mystery plots, and the character development, and I really did love the main couple (it helped that the main guy was super attractive. A real hero.) Normally I don't watch dramas. My mother convinced me, though. It's her favorite show. So, I wrote a poem about it for her. Enjoy!

Crossing All the Lines
Trapped in a world with so many rules
A world that plays all the honest as fools
A place where life is all arranged
And it is believed that destiny can not be changed
Everyone has their intended roles
The servers sell their dignity, and the leaders sell their souls
A place where love can not grow
Where truth is only in the know
The lines between the chosen and the rest
Where the poor are grateful, and the ungrateful are blessed
but in this dark and confining place
Fortune would smile upon one's face
A person of character, poor but determined
Braved this place crawling with vermin
To all that were important, he was a nobody
Every rule dictated who he should be
Yet he broke each rule; side stepped each sign
That he was going the wrong way and should resign
He slyly avoided the eyes of the lawmakers
While unveiling the plots that proved they were lawbreakers
He said, "I matter." And he was told no one would hear
But someone for once had an open ear
As he rose from the destiny assigned to him at birth
She descended from hers, shortening the girth
He looked and saw an angel
She looked and saw the same
He saw someone he would love
She saw an escape from the world above
Though he was dirty and she was clean
She was delicate, and he was lean
They were drawn together by forces unknown
Forces determined to destroy the rules shown
He wanted to free her, and she wanted to be free
He wanted to see her, and she wanted to see
Then she saw him oh so clear
And knew something akin to fear
For now, she loved him as much as he did her
A love that no lines or rules could deter
They tried to deny it
They tried to run away
To adhere to the rules
But their love was there to stay
And so a poor boy loved an angel
Though she claimed that it was she who loved an angel
For she lived among monsters; demons she couldn't expel
And the purest thing that has entered her life
So selfless and sure and weathering of any strife
Was the love he offered and the heart he gave
The kindness in his eyes and the smile so brave
Both were strong; both were honest and just
No matter how they denied, their gravitation was a must
He was strong when she was trapped
She was strong when he was lost
When either one couldn't pay the price
The other would simply ask the cost
They defied all odds and crossed all lines
They broke their cages and all other confines
They saved the lives and saved the day
Then they revealed their secret and ran away
They lived happily ever after
All smiles, joy, and so much laughter
A child was born of their love
Proving marriage fit them like a glove
