Basking in the moonlight
Of the diamond window panes
Her chocolate hair
Glistens amidst the empty hall
A faint scent of burnt cedar
The dining room table
A lighter atop of the letter
Crisp air, stiff wind
She held the pearlescent shell in her palm
The slice of cake waiting for
The perfect moment of being consumed
A tasteful solid dissolved as it is digested
A cheery liquid in the glass
A grin arose on her mask
A click, then a flicker
The ink and letters were no longer
His message became the thickness of smoke
