He paints his masterpiece[with slivers of her shattered tongue]
By redtearswhitesnow
I would throw
a sigh at her words
to feel them crack
along my anemic fingers.
Picking up the pieces
and painting perfection
along the roof of my mouth.
To place all of this
along a lethargic breath
and with it
serenade the stars.

This was wheezy, like the croak of breath coming from lungs more cancer than flesh. It was desperate, like jumping off the edge of the world to catch the sun.
