"Heaven's ways include the human: among a thousand sorrows, I stand alone."

"My heart is in a world of water and crystal, My clothes are damp in this time of spring rains."

"I’m so thin, my shadow could slip through a crack in the door."

"Saddened by the times I weep at the flowers tormented by the partings even the birds startle my heart."

"The stars lean perilously close to the earth tonight."
