Through the years
I’ve become used to sorrow,
there was not one spring
I didn’t leave behind
the flowers.

If I say
this or that,
how ordinary grief becomes –
broken cries are the words
that sorrow’s voice demands

Springtime rain!
Almost dark, and yet
today still lingers

In a world

that don’t fall?
