Ophelia

Wearing a vintage dress and belt.

This was taken EXACTLY two weeks ago. My sister and I were really bored before choir, so we decided to go outside and do an Ophelia-themed photo shoot. I really love that second picture so much! Here's a song that I wrote a while ago, told from Ophelia's perspective. If you're an avid Shakespeare fan, you'll be able to recognize some of the words and phrases taken directly from "Hamlet".

Here's a Rue for You Love

And Here's a Rue for Me

I Loved You I Wanted You

But You Didn't Care for Me

I Tried to Win Your Affection, to See What Ailed You So

But You Cursed at Me, You Spat at Me:

"Get Thee to a Nunnery, Go!"

Oh, Hamlet! Why Did You Break My Heart?

A Flower Trembling in the Icy Storm

You Tore My Soul Apart

Here's a Rue for You Love

And Here's a Rue for Me

What's Wrong with Me, They Wonder?

But It's Nothing the Eye Can See

Rosemary's for Remembrance, and Pansies Stand for Thoughts

How I Wish You Could Understand

Oh How Much My Mind Has Lost

Oh, Hamlet! Why Did You Break My Heart?

A Flower Trembling in the Icy Storm

You Tore My Soul Apart

Here's a Rue for You Love

There's None Left for Me

I Wove Them Into a Garland

To Hang Upon That Tree

You're Full of Woe, You're Full of Fear, But You Can't Do a Thing

I'm Lost to You-Water in My Heart

Beneath the Flowing Stream

Oh, Hamlet! Why Did You Break My Heart?

A Flower Trembling in the Icy Storm

You Tore My Soul Apart

Haha, that soudns like I'm all depressed right now, but really I'm fine. Got to go do my AP work! Ugh, SATs in two days..hey at least I get to pig out on Peanut M&Ms during the break!
