Flood
By the light of the moon,
she weeps,
her sorrow escapes,
with a flood.
She tries to hold back,
to keep a straight face,
but the force is too strong,
and the waterfall overpowers her.
She lets it all out,
and returns to her life,
a life of stress,
and torments,
hoping against hope,
the flood will never return.

This poem was written sitting outside of the mall in South Austin, waiting for a movie to start.  I had just gotten out of the hospital several days earlier.
