Dark bloom
Dark roses bloom, /
strong with desire’s thorns, /
drenched in rain and tears.

Empty exit
Music made with tears, /
dissonance flows over me. /
Words clang: bullet, heart.

Waiting
Widow’s tears, waiting /
by the empty walkway. /
The gate remains closed.

Spring
Spring begins gray, /
Bleary eyes crusted with tears, /
Yawning into sun.

Winter rain
I see you on leaves, /
lost tears of the winter rain. /
I see my rain, too.

Tears
The gray cloud monster /
clutches at the evening sun, /
