You
hold an
amber light
aswim in the
darkness of
my room.
I yearn
for
its
warming glow to
wrap me in dreams
and shield my mind
from the clasp of doom.
You trace each monster
and paint their faces
into the dewy glass
as my eyes behold
each spectral flicker
and the cascading wax.
Your crystal halo dances
for sleepwalking shadows
nestled on my ocher walls.
Your cool ribbon of smoke
crawls toward the ceiling
and I watch the fading glint
as your paraffin falls.
