Teardrops On the Fire
Laughing for your
faithfulness -
So shallow now,
Withering..
Your two faces.
Sought to heal the
bludgeoned -
My paradise,
Asking,
All the why’s.
Why?
why!
If I could just see through him right this minute,
then my heart would stop being resilient.
Sleeping amidst twin
earthquakes -
In my head
Twisting my gut.
Better than running
on mildews -
Of teardrops
on the fire
Burning silently.
Then..
and then!
If there’s surety in life that fits like skin,
No pain, no doubt -
And everything’s so boring.
Scorching the rose’s
beautiful gaze -
She’s blind
Unsure,
But for a while.
Then gathering all
the colors once mistook -
no shades,
no grays
Behold!
Me!
Just me..
