It inspires sadness 

Provokes my thoughts to oceans 

Of the subterranean 

Projects me into an abyss 

Of a wet and wondrous world  

Invokes the rain  

From my spirit 

Of windows damp 

With condensation 

Of tears  

My spirit weeping 

Singing songs of desperation 

Inside my soul. 

Of love lost 

Where the color of red 

Once resided. 

Of cool winds blowing 

Caressing my face 

The temperature of your skin 

When you ceased loving me. 

Of skies 

With no clouds in view. 

If the grass was only  

The color of dew. 

Of sapphire 

Shining bright. 

The ring around the moon 

At night.
