My Fair Ophelia
Her hair still perfectly poised and
My Fair Ophelia,
That tear that trembles down a heavy toll is
No more.
Sleep, dear, within your flowers and dream
For what comes of you now? Peace lay delicately masked.
Softly soaked hands still intertwined with the thorn abreast,
Stinging, dull ache, what is left of you.
Weeds wrapped round fragile ankles, sink into the murky sand
Your flower crown tumbled when
You splashed in the sensation-
Sweet release,
A ripple of Lilies and white roses
Strewn across the water
Pain no more
Evermore.
