acid tears V2

on the spot; as requested

carcasses

within empty shells

seeing with their dead eyes

rotting flesh

hollowing their perspective

skin

melts away

the dreariness

in the sky

is stale

the air

is compressing

us

our lungs

are crushing

burning

light it on

fire

my eyes

as dead as they are

rot in place

it's missing something

something 

let it fall 

from the sky instead

acid tears

as rain

Acid rain destroys us, acid tears break our hearts, neither is good for the earth or the soul. Valentine

I get many pictures in my mind as I read this poem. Great imagery of many things, mostly stuffed animals, maybe a young girl growing up and having to put them away for the time being. This is a beautifully touching write, thanks for sharing it with me and have a wonderful day.

Pictures of stuffed creatures, really added life to this dark poem.
Very well penned, despite being a on-the-spot work.
Keep up the good work!
