No Matter

No matter

The amount of candles lit

No matter

In the corners of the room; darkness persists

No matter

The traps laid to catch them

No matter

Bad thoughts return in hauntings

No matter

How painful the waking hours

No matter

The nothingness a blackened ocean

No matter

A mermaid’s smile in greeting

No matter

While flailing, sinking; without drowning
