genius resides

genius resides

curious pain lingers,
it’s grip within reach
of self and tomorrow.
fallen leaves cascade,
the trunk remains
veins cast outward,
branches frame memory
and the crying never stops.

soft sobs engulf
diffuse anguish entails
reason fraught with symmetry,
mirrored in misery.
a rainstorm of madness
cloaks the artist within;
calm at the eye of the storm,
genius resides.
