in this despairingly dark place
i am lost, trying to wander
somewhere that is not here
with my last, i set the match asunderits flame glows quietly in my trembling hand
its warmth fills me with comfort
stars could not compare
nor anything of the sortthen it goes out
and i am left wandering once again
wandering through this tunnel
searching for the light at the end
