The Unfinished Chapter - 94

Chapter 94

Molten wax, burning candle, intangible patterns
She watched
Ever so quietly
Ever so still
Her tears failed betraying her this time
She listened to words strung together, producing song
Songs that she once sang
Songs that held meaning, once up on a time
Words, they are mere words now
Sung in that moment of gladness
In the heat of passion
Sung while love seduced, played a game that someone else would take
She closed her eyes, drifted away to the tune
Depth, emotions, feelings, love
She opened eyes,
Chaos in the real world failed to enchant her senses
Words, how she loved them so
How she clung to them like a lovelorn lover looking at her half for the first time in a long time
Words, beautiful words
Gladdened her heart, gave her soul wings... and then,
Stabbed her through the heart with a knife so sharp, an injury so brutal, she saw a dove cry tears of blood
Molten wax, burning candle, intangible patterns
She watched
Ever so quietly
Ever so still
