Literature Text

Under the grotesque and twisted gnarled tree

she waits for the oh-so innocent eyes to appear

out of the dark his hands reach,

holding a glass heart,

but he lets go

lets it fall

to to the dry pavement,

where liquid memories are lost

they run into the cracks of the sidewalk,

and he walks away,

a translucent dream of what could've been,

and should've been

a childhood

under a dark sky,

the little girl cries,

staring up into the sky

at a red balloon

she reaches for it,

grabs the string,

and floats off into the mist.
