Dark Summer

-



Dark Summer

My senses numb
as blistering rays
seep through my skin
cold as ice
stinging my heart.

In limbo I reside
where tears
are my comfort
releasing the pain
like brilliant stars

lighting the darkness.

Good poem. I pictured a cartoon of someone crying in all directions, and the tears reflecting the surrounding light.

Joanne,

I pictured more of a reflection on moments missed. Maybe even on hurts that were wronged, but whomever chose to correct them their way.
Very nice work, well written!
