Window Stains
by David C. Price
Darkness within envelops,
concealing private pain.
Lost virtue and youth,
entering eternal inferno.
Bruised knees and salty tears
offering no reprieve.
Hard seating for a soul
seeking salvation.
A corner candle flickers,
lifting light until consumed
By yellows, blues, and reds
descending from above.
Panes of expiation
restoring strength and hope
Morning’s star rescues me.
One stain shattering another.
