Salt

by SpaceGiraffe

Summary:

A poem inspired by art of a teary kiss.

Notes:

Inspired by this beautiful art Here

Written as part of GOAD Subversary Poetry prompt to write about an artists artwork.

Fingers divert the tracks of our tears, 

I do no wish to taste the salt of loss on your lips,

Rather, I'd taste the sweetness inside you,

That bursts from you with every movement,

Every look,

Every touch,

Every word,

Underlining even the harshest claims with light. 

Too scared to close our eyes,

Even your pain, too sweet to miss.
