*untitled* [any Suggestions?]

My heart aches as I squeeze you tight;
Your tears run warm aside my neck.
You quiver helplessly, like I had never known you to be.
Torn apart like a rose stomped into the cement.
I kiss your eyes, and wipe them dry, 
and the faintest little smile
breaks out across your weary face
like sunlight through the rain.
