Tokyo at night
an array of lights
steady
flashing
large and small
high and low
bright white
and color
in
a manmade landscape
still omnipresent outside
the hotel window
when the sun comes up
the next morning.
When a heart
breaks
there is no sound
to accompany the look
you see
on the face
of the person
in front of you
but
there you have it
irrefutable proof
you are not alone.
