Silently she waits
her words lay
within her mouth;
letting them fall.
His echoed
back at her like
falling crimson petals
of crystal shards
nicking flesh,
left strewn
upon the floor.
velvet ribbon
unravels in hand,
pressed to lips,
bittersweet desire.
chocking back
an ocean of words,
that now fall within
a single tear,
cooling burning
cheek
