The shadow watcher.

The shadow watcher.

A Poem by andrew mitchell

He strikes the match
the wick of candle 
shining on shadows
a night encroaching....

only to find
the cloak of darkness
his inner cosmos
being engulfed....
fading to black,
a wispy apparition
a trail of vapour
he's gone.

Deep and hard thoughts in the short poetry. When all we can find is darkness. What is left? Each line made the reader feel and understanding your thoughts and words. Thank you Andrew for sharing the amazing poetry.
