By Madeleine Correa
Dew on the windowsill,
what remains of the storm.
One teardrop falling,
faster, faster.
I watch it race across the glass as another runs down my cheek.
Glazed eyes and fog on the window
mix with the frost that coats the glass.
A late winter sun’s light
tries to pierce through the haze,
but still I can’t see.
