Dónall Dempsey - ALL THINGS WEPT.

The rain fell
like sorrow.

The rain fell
like loss.

It fell about
the house

shattered
like glass.

It was as if
the world wept

& eternity
wept too.

Everything
wept.

All things
wept

except
I

who knowing
there were no tears

that I could cry
to bring you back

to ease
the agony of your absence...

I abandoned
the house

lashed now
by the rain

blinded
by the rain.

I cried out
your name

&
cried.
