Teach me how to be tireless
In this old city of filth,
Missing pavements, stray cats
And plastics floating in murky flood.
Dear rain, have you ever loved?
Because I had-- have,
And I wonder if there is an end
To this pouring of self, well at least
You have the streets
To echo your drops, relentlessly.
While I fall freely, quietly
Unable to make a sea like you did.
