Tears

Night is coming still
Icicles drip the seconds
Tears of a broken heart
       ...
Dust on moth wings fall
In shards and none hears it
Tears in the shower
       ...
A moon rolls throat down
I swallowed air in the gulp
Tears are bitter still
     ...
Looking in the sun
Makes the eyes wet and not dry
Like thinking of love
