I cry I cry I cry

"I cry I cry I cry" watercolor on 140 lb paper 11" x 15"
This is the original painting I used in my book "My sad is sadder than yours" to illustrate this poem:
unhappy endings

standing in front
of the ashes
of another
wildfire
in my heart

I am empty I am lonely I am torn
I’m deserted I’m rejected I’m alone
I am broken I am wounded I am sore
I’m discouraged I’m defeated I’m forlorn

standing in front
of the ashes
of another
wildfire
in my heart

I cry
I cry
I cry.
