Ophelia
Your heart was shattered
you knew not
what love did not offer
Ophelia
you felt more
than could be given
and now you wash upon the rivers
Ophelia
your heart was old for your time
your body young could not combine
you knew things others
had just pushed aside
and your mind you not take it
not enough time
Ophelia
you washed upon the river
the day your heart was shattered
But your soul
breathes on the meaning of love
to keep close and not to be left behind
when worlds combust
our hearts we must
say feel the love
for we only have today
and with each passing tick of the clock
unless we love
another ophelia will be lost
