tear drops

By little butterfly

sparkling reflections

falling on desert
craving of thirst
falling ever so softly onto the plains

the sand dunes crumbling
clustering together

fading....
falling...

synchronising the flow of tears

the night sky growing colder
the tears start to form in to ice

while melting on my pillow of sand

staring at the stares
does nothing for there is no beauty and grace
like the way that a tear drop flows down a human face

the snd shall be my blanket

bury my body in the hot sands
cover my body in tears
