Misty eyes flow tears of longing,
grazing rose petals with melancholy tales.
Juniper and lavender vases of apologies,
absorb despair permeating through pores, of broken hearted sweat.
The warmth of your touch lingers, taunting me.
Memories fill my vacant stares, the pain,
pinpoints dispersing through out my body,
shedding slowly from my embered skin.
My heart, modeling clay, reshaping itself
as the grains of time drain slowly.
