Extinguished

Folder: 
The Dark Side

I've dwindled down to nothing-

like a candle out of wax

and way past its wick,

I too, have become useless.



Tears have long now doused

any flame which burned within',

taking with it, desire and will,

leaving me in the duskiness of obscurity.



I have been made blinded

by the glare of darkness.

No more, can I see

through the denseness of my views.



Light no longer illuminates,

where only shadows can dwell.

And in their presence,

I have become, extinguished.
