The morning stared into his face
So weak and jaded
The candle faded into haze
The candle faded

Upon his hands, dark stains of ink
Transformed in color
And blooming early, far from spring
The nature hollered

Outside the window, in embrace
The winds debated
The candle faded into haze
The candle faded

Behind his desk, in common stance
So full of wonder
His head was rested on his hands
His soul in slumber

Upon the hearth, his writings were
Not even ashen
The molten wax froze on the floor
From last night’s passion

Where tangled in a single gaze
Two fates were braided
The candle faded into haze
The candle faded

The silence crept into the room
Quick and eternal
Dim shades and shadows of his doom
Fell on his journal

The sun was rising in its place
As if inflated
The candle faded into haze
The candle faded

In memory of B. Pasternak

I fell in love and kept on falling
