Needing Solace

[ohsheila]

The night creeps in like a dark cloak
Darkness has me surrounded
The light I search for
Flickers in the distance
Wavering, so far out of reach

I fly in closer like a butterfly
I strain to feel your warmth
I dance around you joyously
Feeling the heat, too close
And the flame extinguishes.

Thank you... I didn't anticipate someone looking through the old stuff, but I'm glad you did and enjoy the poem. :)

It's weird.... I was really depressed at that time, too. It seems that I pull some of the best stuff out when I get that way. Sometimes those emotions just refused to be ignored, eh?
