Pink Tears, Black Cries

Folder: 
Dark Poetry

Jaded imperfections shine

on rapidly graying faces.

Anguish we keep locked inside

on days in happy places.

Dying, we smile softly

on graves we weep alone.

Endless sorrow fighting down

on crumbling concrete stone.

Porcelain angels sing remorse

on resounding empty notes.

Until the paint-by-number dries

on with incomplete, uneven coats.

Grateful tears of shame we cry

on pallid trails they run.

Eternal fallen devils fly

on burning faith into the sun.

To die away with the ashes

onward, scattering to the wind.
