"The Words"

A candle the color of the ocean

Flickering through the different shades of time

The space between sea and sky

Reflecting the facets of life in a splinter of white lights

Hovered between this world and the next

Waiting for the last of the cool water to drain away

Waiting to leave where only clouds tread

To no longer be bound by the crippling ties of mortality

And, finally, be free.
