Analysis of She was Able to Cry.
She thought of death
in all of it's forms.
Then about life
in all of it's strife.
Next of joy and
brilliance so bright.
She thought about nature;
the fragile starlight.
Touching on love;
cravings and birth,
She held her child
fresh as the earth.
Molten tears
warming the hearth.
