in the shadows

0 posted 2003-06-19 12:19 PM



The evening burns,
the candle's shadow
turns upon itself,
and yearns to carry me
beyond the doors of dreams,
to worlds that seem to wear
more comfortably
with every passing life.

Is it something that settles into the bones?
I don't know.
Maybe I'll find out tonight.
Time to snuff the shadow maker . . .

Your writing is like a soothing balm, icebox.
Oh yes, I do love the hush in your words.

... beyond ... and when you awake again into this world you still feel some remnants of comfort ...
Beautiful.
