wALKING bACKwARDS iN tHE dARK


Walking backwards in the dark


when you know how to walk in the dark
and see beauty in the light
reaching for a candle
and not getting burnt

stepping back without falling
to hear that whisper
that soft glowing
to feel that kiss and it’s warmth

walking backwards in the dark
to see the beauty of light
and it’s glowing warmth
without a stumble

what colour is a candle
the fire that burns
the fire in light
that a whisper can extinguish

what sound a footstep
to glide in the darkness
anticipating the kiss
without falling

walking backwards in the dark


A. MENDOZA, 2017
