I am crying for myself tonight

I am crying for myself tonight
like shooting stars from Venus' eyes
bright and beautiful feeling-
sweetly seasoning the empty skies

I am crying for myself tonight
like lightening splitting willow's branch
so shreds my hollow, wooden heart
weeping sap in sticky dance

I am crying for myself tonight
like berries bursting thick, tart sorrow
secret sadness poisons -
and sends me to sleep with
cold blue corpses
'till
  tomorrow.
