There is no direct evidence to show where Shakespeare got his ideas. Many of his plays were adaptations from older plays, from histories, or from extant stories. Very few of Shakespeare's plays we original plots, though his adaptations usually included new or re-imagined characters. For his poetry, there is some speculation that he drew from his private life for the sonnets, writing about his dead son, his mistress, and no doubt he drew on personal experience the way any artist does to mine his/her own emotional life, but there is no evidence that there are direct parallels between the sonnets and Shakespeare's private life. If you actually mean ides, that is the Roman designation for the 15th of the month.

How did the phrase the ides of March are upon you?

It's a misquotation from Shakespeare's Julius Caesar: The soothsayer has warned Caesar to "beware the Ides of March" (The Ides of March is March 15). March 15 comes along and Caesar, still in the pink, sees the soothsayer. He says, "The Ides of March are come" and the soothsayer says "Aye, Caesar, but not gone". Sure enough, Caesar is murdered shortly thereafter.
