flicker (from 3rd person poetry competition)
flicker
when morning awakes
as she does bury her face
the pillows sink and
the light flickers
petals alike eyelashes
dewdrops, as of they were
tears shiver away
and at that moment she was sure
nothing will really change
her trembling hands,
fragile as her being,
on the verge to shatter,
row down the thin laces of hair
her eyes
flicker
as a camera, attempting to
capture the light
and keep it in her eyes.
