HEARTBREAKA Poem by StarWhy does love sometimes sit on our chest and lacerate the heart? The salt dripping in her eyes The bleach burning fires Her eyes are a dried desert A hot summer sun Blinded from the scars that have laced them The moon is the lighted path at night Over a funeral piece In the dark she hides all the words that hang on the hinges of her heart...soul...mind...mouth... In the night she hides behind a charcoaled face with her bottle of whiskey.... Her mind is a clouded sky She drips into the earth her weeping spirit
