A Wish

The warm moisture builds in my eyes
Like rivers swelling after the rain
Until it's all too much
And the agony cascades
Down my fresh-washed face
I know these tears are born blind
upon the thoughts that hurt me
Still I could only fathom
The joy it would bring me
To have you kiss them softly away
Leaving the slight tingle of your lips
Instead of my salty pain
On my skin
