&quot;You&#039;re only given one little spark of madness; you mustn&#039;t lose it.&quot;<br /> -Robin Williams


Heavy are the lashes which hold dreams
On a dreary afternoon
Where wind knocks at the doors
And sends the shingles running for the hills
I do not want to lick the dew less grass
Where dawn’s rose colored cheeks blush upon
Nor do I want to drink the water from the soil
I wish for roses to bloom in this rain
To kiss my pale lips
And create a rail-rose stain
But I am made of unspoken words
And rain only makes an inked mess of me.
