Well?
The answer?
The answer:
Sitting on a creaky wooden bench
beside a small lake
motionless
eyes fixed in a trance
a tear
one
then another
A ceiling midnight blue
a bed beneath
spotlit by the silver moon
crinkled sheets
silent tremors
then sleep
Red rose water droplets
fragranced
thorns lots of thorns
green thorns
on this red rose
dropped
trampled
pushed aside
Love?
Yes
I know it
I know it well.
