Shedding a Tear
Sitting, thinking
of troubles and grief,
that used to seem
below my beliefs.
Flowers I've wilted,
a soft touch, a breath,
love that once started
and blossomed, then death.
Solutions? I have none
to speak of I fear.
Just, sitting, thinking,
shedding a tear.

In science one tries to tell people, in such a way as to be understood by everyone, something that no one ever knew before. But in poetry, it's the exact opposite.
Franz Kafka (1883-1924) Czech writer.
