Maybe

it is true
maybe I do
hide behind
my words
and maybe
I am not

afraid of
the melting wax
maybe it is
the flame

I really enjoy the style you've used with this piece... your idea is wonderful and the simplicity is a great way to bring it together.
I don't think i could have written this better if i tried!

(OH the TALENT in Passions! is there a book of compilations out there???)

...or perhaps it is fear of the darkness which waits poised, always ready to return once the candle is spent...?  Nice metaphors HeLen -- thought provoking.
