Creative Challenge 236: Gold/Golden

Neighbour outside door
Somewhere in the dark
She is waiting
Holding the candle with its quivering flame
She might have a skin of golden hues
Her heart is not golden
Just empty and black
Forbidding
If you see her, walk the other way
Do not ask how she lights her candle
What is burning in the flames
You will see things that should not be seen
You will hear the screams of the lost
Not all that glitters is always gold
