A teardrop
escapes
slowly meandering
down the ***** of
her tear-soaked face
A sigh
barely audible
hanging on her lips
gets swept away by
a cold autumn wind
A stray
lock of hair
dangling unnoticed
as her eyes focus
beyond the horizon
A fist
Unclenching
hangs by her side
as anger fades and
resilience takes root
escapes
slowly meandering
down the ***** of
her tear-soaked face
A sigh
barely audible
hanging on her lips
gets swept away by
a cold autumn wind
A stray
lock of hair
dangling unnoticed
as her eyes focus
beyond the horizon
A fist
Unclenching
hangs by her side
as anger fades and
resilience takes root
Feeling like I need to will some hope into words that are as fragile as ash in the wind
So work in progress but need to write
So work in progress but need to write
(Queenstown, South Africa)
