black, burnt, and separated
which happens to be the obvious
the majority of the living is blind
except all the beautiful things

remarkable in my presence
a flame bloomed bright
not yet another sentence
to cause a melting dim light

candle wax
keeps my mind off of me
keeps me from not knowing what to do
burn another wick
burn a candle for you

melt away
to another day
brings me closer to a white washed carnation
melt away
to yesterday
or amaze me with a brand new conversation

one like no other
the one we had before

ignorance has hardened the earth with its cold reality.  black & white has set in. until my pastel eyes see through. right now, a bitter frost sheets this image in my mind and i dream of things such as ships, water, ropes..  all symbolic in meaning.

besides, if you look hard enough, you'll see Nessie...
