Flicker,
Red wax flowing,
Spilling on to whiteness,
A flame to cast out some brightness,
Showing.

Flicker,
Blue eyes watching,
Seeing in to darkness,
A soul that burns with deep warmness,
Catching.

Flicker,
As soft breath blows,
Unknown lingers from light,
Just a single candle braves the night,
Shadows.

Flicker,
Candlelight finds,
From shallow pools of flame,
Lost in a darkness with out a name,
Or mind.
