Shadow of Tears



Where tears rolled down Signal Hill

there rivulets formed Shadow 

following twin’s auburn will ~

through blue moons and red, Mars stared

as Shadow birthed mottled mares

now she rolls back citrus flares

onto face, blemishes dare !

This is beautiful, Ghairo. Good luck for the contest. Wow for imagery that says so much, the whole poem couldn't be as better. <3
