Hamlet's Love Story
“O help him, sweet heavens!”
-Ophelia
You are my heaven
You are my dream and my love
You are the fire that burns inside of me
The fire that keeps me alive.
However, you are not my inspiration,
Nor are you my savior.
You can never save me
For I am already gone.
You might have understood me once
But you no longer know me
You could be what is still holding me down
But you cannot keep me here, grounded forever.
You will be glad to know, though, that I still know you
And I still dream about you.
I am the fire that burns in your heart
And I am what you call love.
I am the dream that helps you sleep soundly at night
I am that happy thought that keeps you smiling.
This will not last forever, because I must go.
But I will always be your true love.
While I am your love
You are still, impossibly, my dream.
You will always be my fire.
However, you cannot save me.
But I am still your dream, too.
Somehow, how I do not know,
You will always be my heaven.
