Flame

I am the

                        delicate

 

flickering flame in

two cupped hands

                       

never

 

to be looked at.

One wrong breath,

A sigh,

A whisper,

 

And I,

In no way,

                       

lived.

Very interesting, I love the layout scheme of the poem. Very creative. Interesting, I love the words, and the ending is my favorite part. Finally moving on, is the idea, I get from it. Great work!

Such a delicate flame... Fire is a funny thing. So powerful, so fragile. I look back at myself, and I can't help but relate. I wonder how this came about to you, well written. :)
