Solitude

The candles in my room flicker
with an unknown breeze,
The dim light is welcoming.
Familiarity surrounds me in all I see,
Solitude is mine.

Dancing

Watching the fire with a curious fear,
Eyes never leaving the flame.
The animal sits, raising it's head to dance.
As it swerves it's head and neck,
Dancing with it's fear,
I watch in curious wonder.
