TTallow Droppings

Inside there burns the candle dropping

its hot running tallow onto the cold

congealing plate of time

a harsh reminder of one's terminality

ebbing softly at life's shore

My Addiction

Kisses to be shared

disappearing in the foam

moments to be remembered for so short an eternity

the flickering flame is all there is

a connection.. a passion.. a hunger...

an addiction to youth and life.
