I awake by flicker of candle light my sleep-filled eyes unable to clearly see With my first breath I cry out in the night "... where is this place" I find myself to be I grow by the flicker of candle light burning softly ... touching, warming I play Feeding upon the shadows of the night, yearning searching the stars to find my way I live by the flicker of candle light sometimes captivated by its romance Embodied within its eternal sight blinding me of its dying circumstance For this I must prepare, the coming dawn In a flicker of candle light ... ... I'm gone Fear is a blindness, heart is the cure. - C. Belville 02 |

Your first stanza is very much like a poem that I wrote but there is where the likeness ends. Marvelous. Maggie |
