In Cense




There is a fragrant candle in my room
Don't you dare call me lonely!

Seasons came and went
And the insistent skies...

That's my walk there!
Trees have grown into it

Tooth and nail
Fangs and claws

Little room left for walking

I close in on the branches to breathe the distance

There is a fragrant candle in my room
Don't you dare call me lonely!

One of these days
I will grow into my path
My leafy palms know the trick

There I am
Where my two shadows meet on the glass
One which always proceeds
And the other which never fails to recede

I am the meeting point of a perpetual return journey

The candle burns and offers incense
In sense, it can never be lonely.
