Flits And Wisps
Whispering
The shadows shake
But can’t dance
Only flits and wisps
Something rustles above
Without a sound
Hot wind from the floor
Has no warmth
Only flits and wisps
The ghost of a cat rubs my leg
But doesn’t purr
A candle flickers but won’t shine
Lungs inhale
But can’t breathe
Songs without music
Flits and wisps
Lyrics with no words
Flits and wisps
Art without color
A heart filled with passion
A soul wrapped in joy
A body of pure desire
In silence they rattle the cage
In darkness they can only glow
They fly underground
They want permission to play today
Only in flits and wisps
