Chocolate Veil

Source: http://www.flickr.com/people/caryndrexl/

The wishes I sent to the reddened moon,
sealed in parchment and wax,
were filled with sighs and longing -
I hope you'll see them soon.

Recorded in the darkest ink -
the raven's wing it rivals -
a simple, desperate request;
written here, as follows:

let this chocolate veil
which I wear without cessation,
that once before was my distress
now be my liberation.
