I Taste TearsA Poem by JupiterI close my eyes and I hear your laughter ring through my ears I see you growing older and taller I feel your soft embrace I smell your cologne and your sweat I taste your love on my tongue, bitter like your end I hear your groan of desire I see your relief when you find needles I feel you relax as waves of peace wash over your soul I smell your serenity I taste your escape I hear you gasp like a fish out of water I see you fall to the floor in desperation I feel your clawing fingernails scratch at your chest I smell your blood hot thick and flooding I taste your sour breath as it fades like stars at dawn I hear church bells and hushed whispers I see your body limp and cold on a bed of flowers I feel your skin no longer soft I smell death as it clings to my black dress I taste tears
