Petals |
Petals pour from themselves in a synchronized swim |
They’d been held to the stem as though holding their breath' |
Collectively they agree to exhale and be free |
Now one after another they tumble silently |
Oblivious to me |
The ashes of last night |
Sigh into a heap |
Petals pour from themselves in a synchronized swim |
I am woken in a moment as they break the air |
Disintegrate integrate with resigned grace |
Lining up to jump they remind me of tears |
Sudden and many fall |
I look to you |
Your empty chair |
And then I remember |
Why there’s lilac in the air |
My tears well up and cry for you |
My tears well up and cry for you |
My tears well up and cry for you |
My tears well up and cry for you |
There’s wet in my hair and I never knew |
My tears well up and cry for you |
My tears well up and cry for you |
My tears well up and cry for you |
My tears, my tears |
My tears, my tears |
My tears, my tears… |
These are my tears |
