Around those almond eyes
Onto the eyelash
A black abyss for the drop to rest on
Blink!
And it’s rolling on your cheek
Ending at a intricate petal
Whose extending end turns to form a smile.
But that petal withers
Like a downhill fall of a desert dune
The dry air she tumbles past
The eroding sand filling her dying heart
Her mouth closed
Refusing to scream, to struggle as she lies in the blowing dust
Suffocation, as she is covered by the mourning winds
She lays there lifeless… her tears now dried up.
