tears will form again.

  don't want to rise from the ashes
 a phoenix that flies into dust  
tears can't form on eyelashes
 living a life with no lust 

 water carries baby to earth
 a process we hope to avoid 
the end outnumbered by birth
 time that we used to enjoy 

 what do you convey to all of them?  
simple change of perception 
 wallflower bent at the stem 
 pain of  the climax ,the conception 

 This small child is all that I am 
a ribbon that will carry on
 stun and silence this lamb
 from  blood I rise like the dawn...

I love the emotion that the image of a 'wallflower bent at the stem' creates.
It's as fragile as someone who needs to cry but whom 'tears can't form on eyelashes'.
Beautifully expressed emotion.
