tearthief (Free verse) by artiphishal
Sounds like missing tears
feeling summer from inside pillow case interior
eyelashes clamped together, zippering the backstage act
black sage sniffling, a soon to be cough
gagging on icing sugar, alone in a drought
back-peddling uphill from an intersection
pushing the door closed on heels who pass
rewinding the film to see the end
wrenching heart beats from open palms
mouth motions to sing, but nothing notes
buying seeds for weeds come spring
embedding slivers into flesh
glass shards touching and rubbing beneath eyeâs lid
Tear thief emptying her sack into the sea
