After The Rain The Pebbles Too Glisten
after the rain
dews still cling on the leaves
glistening,
the pebbles too, but lifeless
still, my heart feels
sympathy, for those in the cold
immobile, wanting to change
but cannot, vision filled,
all unrealized, anticipations
smothered wishes, choked
ambitions, breathless, dead
nerves, numbed existence,
unfeeling, used now
to the brim, unspoken, desires
fettered.
