By Candlelight (unedited poem)
A reflection of several days events and people written by candlelight on a ten minute whim before drifting away in dreams.

I never post anything unless its perfect (virgo), so posting a first draft is a first.

By Candlelight (unedited first draft)

Heart and loneliness
Violet versus clear
life vs inanimateness.

One lost in the sky,
and one seeking on the earth:
seeking others
helping and giving.

Is what one does
while the other admits
selfish callousness.

A little candle
wanes between
a flicker and flame,
but now will see.

Those shadows cast
on the cave wall
are ever changing.

But their deception
and chains seem to still remain,
but only until the time
where the little light decides to shine.

Then oh so brightly
will the little candle shine light;
to transform those cave walls into truth.
