Alone
with my thoughts
about others.
Flicker in the wind.
Light cannot reveal
the shadows.
Wax flows like tears.
Drops reach the bottom
adding strength where
once was weakness.
Purity and hope
have surrounded me.
My soul welcomes
the silent symbols.
My glances
are the fuel.
My need the reason.
But the earths breath
ends the life.
And darkness prevails
as dawn descends.

Honestly I'm not quite sure what this poem is about...and yet- the feeling and the words are beautiful and cause me a serene feeling...beautiful. Thank you for the entry.
