Overspill

Overspill

eyes which
overspill
soaking a
trail
down the cheek
slowly falling
drop by drop
emotion
overflowing
clearly unable
to stop

tears with
meaning
hurt
pain
craving
& ache
will you
catch them as
they fall?
will you taste
the salty
pain?
pain which
has many
memories
pain which
has many
names

will you
bottle them
up?
ponder upon
them
as they
try to
whisper to you
causing you
to come undone

will you
kiss the pain
and tell me
that everything
will be ok?
feather touch
my heart
as you
press into
my flesh
speaking of
your love
as you show
me your depths

layer by layer
shed them all
words & walls fall
as you answer
the heart's call
vulnerability
lay bare
as you
taste & touch
away the pain
and kiss
every tear
