Shadows leap carelessly
Rebounding against each other
On nonchalant walls
The only light
Flickering candles
Calming incense burning
Stinging the eyes
Mockingly in its purpose
Where to from here?
Raised to a whisper
Calling into the shadows
"I am here I am here"
Silence. Emptiness.
Unobtrusive in nature
"Do not leave me"
Desolate and alone
Rain spatters against
Opaque glass revealing
Nothing but silent drumming
"For I am here" |
