Silence
I write to you this very night
As I see your face from candle light
Your gentle face with eyes so bright
Is stuck in my mind
With thoughts of delight, and dreams
Of the day when I can hold you
In my arms before this never ending light.
A candle doesn’t last forever, and
When the candle drowns
Itself with its own wax it is
Time for a new candle to take its place
And so this drowning process
Is what brings about confusion, regret,
lost feelings, loneliness, and
eagerness in our relationship.
But there will always be another candle
For candles will never cease to exist
As long as your beautiful face
Can glow with the light
From the wick of a candle each night,
and put me to sleep, longing to cuddle you
for just one night.
So will my love for you perspire
The wonderful aroma that the candle gives off
Is like a symbol of thought
Even after the flame is blown out,
And my eyes are closed for the night,
The aroma still remains until the next night
That I see your face from candle light.
It is a sort of permanence in my life.
The love for you, the thoughts of you,
The way I say goodnight to you,
Even if I cant talk to you.
Every night, from here on out,
I shall burn a candle,
So your in my sight, as I say goodnight.
I bend over to cease the night
By kissing the image, and blowing the light.
For this is how I feel closest to you
In times of fright.
And so every night to say goodnight
I will kiss your face from candle light
What peaceful rest I shall ignite
With warm vibes of love from the light.
I kiss you goodnight
The smoke when I blow out the candle
is like your presence,
Your soul,
Breathed into me
