FireLight glancing off brick
As the silhouette trembles,
struggling to hold it's form.
FireLight is the only thing maintaining it's life -
if you could call possessing a stolen mirror-key, 176Please respect copyright.PENANAWrS4OFmaCb
a twisted and uncertain existence: 'life'.
Yes, if the flame returns to embers that do not spark
then Demon shall meet shadow once more
leaving Man free to venture the lost tunnels,
to map the uncharted to his heart's content.176Please respect copyright.PENANA71OOz6Hx5p
But what is Man
if not shadow's most loyal companion?
What is Demon
if not a ball of wrath,
it's insane howls scratching at the doors of our minds
fueled by pure innate confusion?
Fueled by all the things we do not know 176Please respect copyright.PENANAnUQgfl5gr5
that never sought to crush us?176Please respect copyright.PENANA8iLlxIV1yP
Brick crumbles now, red or perhaps brown,
Onto earthy floor, brown with flecks of dying green,
until the silhouette falters, black against the torch it grasps,
until the light sharply leaves and the colours are silent,
but are they gone?
There can be no shadow if there is no light.176Please respect copyright.PENANArteAY9uwj6
There can be no shadow if there is no light176Please respect copyright.PENANA4HFLz1yi4P
so it is a pity that FireLight cannot dissipate,
it can only incite a blaze.
