i need help

there's a dream that i cannot seem to reach
a certain disconnect between the imagery and the
strong emotion left behind; i cannot pinpoint
yearning for its feeling, a sentiment hiding in the dark
cold as ice, a small wicked flame resting on its center
there's a dire need for the flame that refuses to fade
my hand reaches for the tangible, it dusts away to the abstract
grasping and holding the darkness of the minute,
blind and directionless, pursuing for that fighting spirit that i cannot see
is the flame still burning?
is the absence of the wicked flame that speaks to the cold?
i cannot answer
what i want to search
i cannot reach
but i shall find it
i do not know what it entails, but i know what it feels
to find a glimpse that completes your soul but is yet
to be answered by your heart alone.
