melancholy
by Angela Thomasthere is a part of me that is deeply
and disturbingly sad. when a man
begins the descent into falling
for me, it's always during a great
period of sadness. maybe they sense
that i'm in trouble and can still be saved
by the grace of certain touch. maybe
it's the glisten of tears on the well
of my eyes. maybe it's the nervous
habits my hands do when they distract
my lips from trembling, still deepening
to a dark dark red. a word always
rises when i'm like this. and it makes
my heart ache to hear it. beautiful. 12/17/2011 Posted on 12/17/2011
