Until

Lost in thought
As the candle wax melts,
The Dragon’s Blood burns,
And the sand counts itself down
But until what?
Until the flame dissolves by what it burns?
Until the Dragon’s Blood loses itself in the smoke it’s formed?
Until I, merged in mind, fade into nothing more than idea?
Lost in thought
As the candle wax melts,
The Dragon’s Blood burns,
And the sand counts down

Counts down until the inevitable end of all things
