faith is an idea,
a butterfly, a rainbow,
seen only by my eyes;
my illusion, my truth.
candles in my heart,
I don't want light,
my vision's nebulous,
my breath dark.
my shreds of light,
my bits of solace,
my placebo, my hope,
my whiff of life,
my essence,
my quintessence.
fragile - contingent,
waiting for a gust,
an icicle, a dewdrop,
stop, don't whisper,
I'll die.
preserve my delirium,
the flame will succumb,
sedate me to a dream,
don't break the iridescent bubble,
till the next twilight..
