One little note, the word drowned is meant to be read as it would have been in Shakespeare's day (drown-ed). It serves a rhythmic purpose, hence my mention of it.
i feel like Ophelia
torn Apart and consummed
by a Misunderstood
profoud
sadness
rejected for a Different Love
than My own
cut loose and Floating to another
universe
vast and Empty
still Smaller than the hole
in my Soul
with Nothing to be done
but Wait
for flowers or Fathers or brothers
or River
to fill it up again
i know what it is to Scream
that Primeval Scream
Empty lungs with silly Songs
meaningless and Passionate
just to pass the time
picking Flowers to bathe
in Tears pouring from near-Blue
eyes that aren't good enough for Him
i know what it is to Crave
Pain
simply to Ensure your own
Existence
aching for a Man who doesn't ache back
or maybe He does
but i'll never know
the more decieved in Tenders of Affection
than in their rejection
one word ringing in my ears
'Drowned'
i know exactly how
good
it would be to simply
drift Away
and Never Return
