I light the wick... Look into your eyes, so far away. Memories of your lips. A puddle forms in the wax. My face turns pale; white as the candle just lit. The sides fold in. Stomach churns. All too familiar. Bead of wax, drips so slow. Memories of your arms wrapped around me. Holding you as you slipped away. A warm breath, the light flickers. The brief extinguish reflecting in your eyes. For just a second, you're here with me again. The flame, now stable, burns steadily for you. |

Strong, very strong. I felt the loss in this the last breath the dying of the light. excelent Do not go gentle into that good night. Rage, rage against the dying of the light. Dylan Thomas I went to the desert on a horse with no name, it felt good to get out of the rain. |

A scent of jasmine just filtered itself through the open window, and I thought I caught the flicker of a candle flame as I read this. Welcome to these poetry pages. |
