A veil lifted <br />from the earth mothers' face, <br />revealing her soft dark eyes <br />and gentle smile. <br /> <br />Her brilliance creates <br />a shimmering glow <br />on the waters that <br />form and fall as tears, <br />now running down my cheek. <br /> <br />Beauty and despondency. <br /> <br />One mirrors the other <br />in timeless torture. <br />The bitter with the sweet, <br />in various proportions. <br /> <br />I like it like that. <br /> <br />A full spectrum of feelings. <br />The good, the bad, the indifferent. <br />After all, she only lent herself to me. <br />She never said I could have her.
