Sarah Perron Poems

Band-Aids cannot cover the wounds that are ever so slowly taking over my life,
threatening it to extinction.

Smiling can only mask so much,
...

Falling to the tear soaked ground,
breath escaping from empty lungs
a mask of black covers this face.
...

I look into your beautiful eyes,
what do I see?
Love.
...

What now lies motionless in my chest,
used to beat so strong.

It stopped beating
...

It is no longer possible to sleep;
i need you next to me.

I can no longer dream;
...
