I Dreamt Of A Candle In Pale Hands

I dreamt of a candle in pale hands

With a crimson flame burning down down down

Wax dripping on soft skin

Too gentle for it's heat

But there was no flinch or falter

Until it melted down to nothing

Leaving only a curl of smoke and scalded flesh

As its legacy

Day 1/14

Kisses between

Desperate mouths

Inhaling like a drag

From a cheap cigarette

Remembering a time

When all we desired

Were words

Instead of actions

The rising storm

And the tumultuous sea

Of gray and green

Cannot be mightier

Than our love

And the sun

In this scaffolding of bones

Summer is gone

Just a heartbeat away

My life feels empty

As I waste my days

Sitting inside

Seeing no one at all

Maybe life will be easier

At school in the fall

The mountain mist

(And the paleness of its shroud)

Is a constant reminder

(In the darkness of my thoughts)

Of how much I really

(Unknowingly, but undoubtedly)

Missed you

I wandered into the purple mist

And listened to the eerie croaks

Of creatures in the dark

Paying no mind

To the smoke and haze

That smothers out my spark

When is the last time

That i thought

For myself?

My mechanical brain

Made of gears and gold

Robotic and cold

I do what im told

And nothing exceeding

What was programed

In my bones

Strings of lights and

Yellow tapestries

Brighten up my room

In an attempt to hide

The darkened mess

That lurks in the corners
