GETHSEMANE

All that night I walked alone and wept.I tore a rose and dropped it on the ground.My heart was lead; all that night I keptListening to hear a dreadful sound.
​
A tree bent down and dew dripped from its hair.The earth was warm; dawn came solemnly.I stretched full-length upon the grass and thereI said your name but silence answered me.
