I see you in the rain as it falls
willingly, bursting against the pavement.
I see you in the trees:
knocked about by careless winds,
browning under sunlight,
shivering in the winter.
I see you in milky, uncoloured tea
sloshing coldly, splattering everywhere.
The more I leave it alone, the less appetising it becomes.
