Ophelia

Another lovesick heartbreak poem.

A fog covers the city
The grass smells like rain
I call again
You don�t answer anymore
I sit, perched on my dark, isolated cliff
My sanctuary away from the noise and lies of the world
I fill my mind with images of you
Of us when we first began our
Sorrowful descent from light into darkness
How does one forget and so impossibly cast aside
The only thing that made her feel alive
The one thing that makes life worth living
You were the only one that could stretch my lips into a smile
The only man who could make my entire body burn with desire
The only demon that could make my eyes bleed salt water
You took selfishly all that I gave willingly
The corruption of both my mind and my body lies with you
As I did on that solitary, quiet September night
When you turned me into
The irrational mess of a woman I am today
Life is not worth living without you
I step off the edge of my faithful cliff
In hopes of feeling on last glimmer of life
As the wind flows through my hair as I fall
You are my epilogue
My reason for life and death
Remember me
