Flagrant Scars
stained eyelids; burning,
eyelashes crusted in saline,
puffy lines seared,
upon bloodshot mirrors,
reflections in black irises -
pupils dangling visual unknowns,
keep it hidden behind happy eyes,
wink and smile;
tears kept flushed on a cornea,
and you cannot have them!
my priceless tears -
spring forth
they leap, and dance;
free to wail under the loving care,
comforting light -
swimming through the beams of the moon,
lapping up kisses in echoes;
vibrations reveal they have value -
to someone …
This was so beautiful, sigh.. Such lovely words.
Thank you Benjamin! I think I sighed them out. Hee hee
Beautiful. Real, and abstract, reminds me how much I miss reading my favorite blogs.
Thank you Nifti! I have been catching up on blogs that I have not been to lately. I got a bit bogged down during the holidays. I was so excited to see you had posted again!
Superb…. these words ring true, beautifully true
