An Ophelian Legend...

At Rivers End: Poetry Cry Ophelia, cry...
until the ocean flows from your eyes
teach the world what it means
to feel your emptiness inside

Cry Ophelia, cry...
because the pain is at it's worst
be sure to hide your face, though
for it's letting go that hurts

Cry Ophelia, cry...
and stand up to fight your fears
no longer can you sink
and drown beneath your tears

Cry Ophelia, cry...
while an angel sits at your side
she'll hold you close beneath her wings
until the moon pulls you with the tide

Cry Ophelia, cry...
let your ocean become your mind
until you can remember how it felt
in that moment of your life, just before you died

Cry Ophelia, cry...
and spread your wings again to fly
allow the wind to take you to where your future lands
and be sure to say goodbye

Cry Ophelia, cry...
you can't find the strength anymore
to heal your mind, to heal your soul
you life has ever changed, now allow yourself to soar

Cry Ophelia, cry...
sometimes there are things that you must never let go
a part of you that searches for the joy within your life
and emptied of your pain, the magic of your soul

Cry Ophelia, cry...
allow the tears to fall,
let go of everything you carry deep inside
allow someone the chance, the chance to hold it all...

Cry Ophelia, cry...

please though, Ophelia-
before you spread your wings and fly,
turn to say, Goodbye...

Ophelia

There is a willow grows aslant the brook,
That shows his hoar leaves in the glassy steam:
here with fantastic garlands did she come.
Of crow-flowers, nettles. Daisies and long Purples
There on the pendant boughs her coronet weeds
Clambering to hand an envious silver broke
When down the weedy trophies and herself
Fell in the weeping brook.

~Arthur Hughes~
