I felt the sorrow of your loss
Reflected in the clear glass
Of the liquid crystals falling
Softly down the valley of your face.
I felt the pain of your suffering-
Fragmenting as they dropped and shattered,
Kaleidoscope pictures wrenched from your soul.
I felt the hunger in your belly
As the crystals formed a river of pity
Mirroring the hurt inside your body.
I felt the misery of your loneliness
In the dampness of your skin;
As those jewels of liquid silver
Tattooed your face
With wrinkles of worry
Furrows of fear, lines of self-hate.
I felt for you as those teardrops
Wrestled your pride
On the waves of your emotions
On display as you cried.
