TEARS OF CAUSELESS SORROW

Sinking into a sorrow
That seems to have no cause
If tears arise and fall
They are free to do so
I will not resist

I will not name the place they come from
For I do not know where
Yet my heart aches 
Not with a longing
But with this causeless sorrow

I will let it pour forth,
And if these tears should fall upon the ground
They will be the water of my humanity
That feeds and loves the garden so much

I am in love
Not with things
Or individual experience
But with the miracle we call life

Maybe the sorrow is
That this miracle is not recognized
As the distraction and pain of life
Is borne and inflicted

I will sit for a while
And gaze into the emptiness
Allow life’s sorrow to flow
And give it no name.
