The Saddest Song by Uriel Tovar The pain seeps through the cracks
Of her broken body
Emptied of face.
Sand clumps around her blood
Leaving the beach tinted red--
Pink.
Foam hits her eyes
As they stare out at an orange and deep blue background
--light breaking on sinking waves.
Her hair,
That danced
Now is weighted by earth. 12/03/2004 Posted on 12/03/2004 Copyright © 2024 Uriel Tovar
