29th jan
11:58 pm
she stood poised like
a porcelain statue
even the dark clouds
gathered to rage
as if somehow
conducting her emotions
the wind tore through the place
cold fingers slapping away
just as she started
to open her mouth
the dog at her feet wailed
a mournful sound
her dark eyes swam
in a pool full of tears,
blinding her for
few precious seconds.
as her long lash's
swept down
a fat droplet fell
on her cheek
thinking it was
starting to rain
her hand moved
to flick it away
maybe it was the
glint of light
maybe it was a memory
that made her stop and reconsider.
she faltered
licked her dry lips
brought her tongue out
and tasted the salt
clinging on her fingertips.
she remembered his voice
"when someone tears ur heart out,
they put tears in ur eye's instead!"
how the salt in her tears mocked him.
noone saw her sad smile
noone saw her sob out
noone saw her pain
just as no one saw
the light that followed her
still she stood poised
like a porcelain statue
about to shatter
above her beloved's grave.
