(for Ross... I wish you were here to Beta-read this)
Flick’ring candles
burning down in melted puddles,
guttering out too soon; eclipsing light.
burning down in melted puddles,
guttering out too soon; eclipsing light.
Movement, strong breezes,
a single wafting breath of air is all it takes to dim the brightness.
a single wafting breath of air is all it takes to dim the brightness.
Or, a final breath that brings forth darkness,
for the ancient stars to hide their twinkling glow;
a flutter of release, of invisible wings.

Emptiness
