“My Eyes Show the Devil’s Tears” – 3/10/2020

My throbbing head

In my trembling hands.

Each quake

Sends my form to shivers,

For I know what my hands have done.

For she trembles

More than I

In the autumn winds

Against me.

Like two fiery leaves dancing in greater motions,

My eyes seem to burn with more heat

Than the wick, aflame

Above her heart,

One that lights the way through my darkness

To her, once more.

How I wish

I could kiss your smile,

To make us cry

For the while.
