That Smell Of A Candle Just Gone Out

half light 

is all I offer in a life 

lived inside the void 

take your fill 

my candle wanes 

soon swallowed by 

demise 

FULLY AWAKE

only in

Snippets

Snatches 

until 

dense air 

pins me 

I used to fight until exhaustion 

I’ve learnt now 

fighting is not a requirement 

it’s easier this way 

half light 

is what I offer 

living inside my own void 

basking in the sun 

never I road I took 

in this half life 

my candle wanes 

I wait patently 

to drown
