Black tears sob down her face,
Carving ebony rivers in the mountains of her flesh.
Her fingers caress the smooth stone
Engraved with the name of a stranger,
A man without a funeral.

Short, but not simple. It's powerful and beautiful. I could almost see the girl with mascara running down her face. Great job!
