Candle wax

I'm in the darkness once again. 
Heed my own advice, I did not. 
Haunted by reality. Entangled in my own words. (Written on a placard in dust.) 
I sought for truth in an idea. 
An insatiable idea with a porcelain mask. 
The same mask that sat in roses, and was worn by royalty, kissed by a ruby lipped enchantress and fitted for a princess upon a lake. 

I did it again. 
My life; a Greek tragedy, a German romance, an Indian folk tale.
Fears grips me. 
I see a road off at a distance and I know where it leads. 
Sword in hands. 
Tooth on nail. 
The bitter sweet taste of defiance. 


I walk away. 
I must push it away as I have done. 
I ought to go back to a simpler time.
The Stone Age

The days where the seeds were hopeless visions and I nothing more than an aspiring fool.
