To Cry

a sweep

a creak

the door is open

 of your being 

                                                     it starts in your mind

then guilt

then, your heart

to your stomach

defies gravity

no, follows it

down to 

a moment

the moment

of all that you are

of all that you want to be

splays

blossoms

feels

let it

take you 

can I

shall I repress

no

this time 

for all time

say ‘no’ to what is 

right, proper

all which is not real

for

tears are living

Life

In tears

you are

Alive
