Very different worlds

Cures for heartache: -
list the reasons on your fingers
butter smooth
rose petals from a gently falling stem
Opium, a heavy cocktail of the senses

Sadness, like the sea, is...
Writhing lightning
secret tears
questions, questions, questions
melancholy twittering and the world revolves again.

The day I was born...
Tulips blossomed in the back garden
Betrayal blossomed
Can't stop the baby crying

Red silk, red silk, red silk and waves of it
Crescent moon. Full moon. Craters. Sisters.
tiger-like
depression
sinking into the swell of words.
