Claimless Torch

I am immersed into your darkness
As I wait for your return

Holding on to Amber claimless
If I let loose you'll feel the burn

You lit a torch into my vein
Did you kindle it with care

As the empty sky desists its reign
Will it distend my hungry stare

Darkness can take along time to dissipate. One might turn to a different light depending on the circumstances. ~~
