Distance Light

A small white candle

sits on a ledge

The flame burns silently

but the world is dead

 

This candle simply

watches and stares

watching though

a small window pain

 

see's rain pur down

bikes flash by

ocean waves crash

and sand all around

 

the beach

sweet serenity

calms us down

the candle watches

our tears

and thereafter a frown

 

a candle of wisdom sits on a ledge

watches are pain from the window

behind the hedge

it speaks with voices

but it is quiet when its asked

sleeping candle sits alone on the ;edge

watches us grieve and sees our dread

 

it is alone

in the silence of the home

watching everyday

just hoping one day

this cadle willl take the pain away

Beautiful piece of writing:D
Where do you find the pictures for yours writing?

This was powerful. I think everyone has that wish for the pain to end, not so much wisked away by a knight, but to find a path in life that can be walked without the pain entering into life on the day to day emotions. The way this was written made me step into that room and feel caged, lonely and tired. I can feel this piece.
