A recent attempt to expand slightly, trying to pull into a more indepth writting, Don't think I'm quite there yet. A brazier, A fire, an unmeasurable beaut, Its light reaching the night sky, As it breaks the bleak darkness, A moment eternal, taken and sealed in time, My eyes they follow, they dance with the flames, As they attempt to break from ties, Always dancing with passion, dancing with grace, willing for a chance to fly. The colours they go from blues, to crimson, to yellow that stings the eyes, A pain that is given and gladly received to make this picture mine, A chosen argument I look for, a debate, a saying, a word, A hope, a dream, a forsaken memory, something that can be heard. I could never find the right words to reach, Could never grasp the right stray verse, As if a man staring down an abyss, found his gaze returned, He'd stare into the blackness, and the blackness would seek back his soul, Finding for him, questions to ask and truths that should be told. And so I contemplate leaping, to plunge my hand into flames, To feel the fire, to be consumed in black, to make the beast of questions tamed, I stagger and stutter, questioning motive, reason to take such risk, But if choose to walk away now, I will know my only chance missed. Now time seems to fight against me, Seems to halt my search, Removes the abyss and fire from gaze, leaving me mortally hurt, My questions remain unanswered, my words remain without life, What should I do? Where do I go? How do I end my Strife?
