In the urgently raucous awakening of Spring
Slowly dies down
During the lethargic sibilance of Summer,

With the crunchy tanginess of Fall,

Pain

...I take the world's pain.

a shielded moon in hiding
for I have nothing left to bring

Sorrowed by life’s unfairness
As the hazy mist clears
Anguish carries stark bareness
Brokenness, deep despair
Hope hanging slim by a thread

                 falls to the scent of showered skin

but maybe it's not always true  how
