Barren

The earth barren, like her soul,
she shall walk this earth in
eternal mourning, like a dark
cloud grief overcomes her,
her pain subsides for a moment,
a moment she welcomes with out a
tear, sadness consumes her,
like a gray rainy day consumes
the earth, her heart longing
for the loss of her baby,
like two lovers longing
for each other.
