Among the lashes

March 29, 2016

Whipped and beated

Closed and blinked

Which lash would you take?

Which makes you feel weak?

A cold, searing pain or a blink of an eye?

A sweet flickering, which would you live by?

Each of us have our pains

Which one would you choose?

Among the lashes we get

Are glares worse or are bruises?
