Sometime after
I sat in my car
Sobbing
For reasons beyond
Thought and memory
Ground water hides
The cavernous hauntings
That trickle
Subcutaneous
A hidden wanting
As though we live
Two lives
One in stunned light
The other distant time
Lost beneath
Later reason resounded
I didn't know why
I drank so deeply
Of my tears
As mood dissolved
I said
I felt empty
When truthfully
It was that
I was too full.
