Tears Made of Diamonds

(Written July 27, 2005, at age 18.)

scraping my insides
struggling to get out
showering from my eyes
drawing blood
...scarlet staining the glint of purity...

running along
pausing
dancing at the edge
of soft black eyelashes
...fleeting shimmer on the dark feathers of doom...

dropping without warning
or desire
falling on velvety skin
smoldering its very texture
...digesting the fabric of life...
