About Me

-----------------------------

A lonely lantern fights the night
it flickers, sad, and stutters light
along the tower watch it walks
while the shadows slide and stalk

and far into the deep and black
a lonely lantern answers back
and mingle tween the light and dark
a lover's touch, a secret spark

it whispers 'cross the silent deep
the miles twixt the lovers' sleep
made closer by the play of light
the lovers hold each other's sight.

(an original)
