The Most Despondent Of Waters

The quiet after the storm

When everything is a clean dull grey 

When the rain starts to fall

Less like a river 

And more like a trickle over rocks.

When the storm clouds are stirred away

And just small wisps remain

That only slightly blemish

The otherwise perfect sky

And weep tiny drops mournfulness.

 When the world is perpetually muted

And no one feels anything but numb

When the most despondent of waters

Spills over the edges

Of the fragile green pools of your eyes.
