Twinkle of My Eyes

By Amber Jones

The starlight fell on my

Cold ivory stained cheeks

Streaking them with a kiss

And sinking way down deep.

The only time you’ll see

The expansion of my soul

Is in the twinkle of my eyes

When I share what I hold.

Consider the gaping

Secrets that run in my veins

Before tossing me aside

Like some disgusting remains.

Consider the bright light

I shine into the gaps,

But also remember

Stars shine brightest when they’re

About to collapse.
