Original Acrylic on canvas. A dark and moody portrait of a woman. Signed by LuAnne Simpson (1949-2016)The poem depicted on the portrait is: “Tears Fall in My Heart” by Paul Verlaine. Verlain was a close companion to Arthur Rimbaud. Tears Fall In My Heart Tears fall in my heart Rain falls on the town; what is this numb hurt that enters my heart? Ah,the soft sound of rain on roofs, on the ground! To a dulled heart they came, ah, the song of the rain! Tears without reason in the disheartened heart. What? no trace of treason? This grief's without reason. It's far the worst pain to never know why without love or disdain my heart has such pain!
