The Flicker Of The Flame

as the flame flickers,

and the wax slowly drips down,

its orange glow intrigues me,

the way it jumps about,

its is so beauty,

yet so dangerous,

it helps fight away the darkness of the night,

but if you get too close it can burn you as well,

it signifies Hell and all that's bad,

but with a pillar of fire.....so did God protect His own,

i use this metaphor because love is the same way,

it can bring out the best in us,

and it can be our downfall,

it can be a protector,

but also a strong enemy,

but just like a moth to the flame,

so are we to love,

some might try to ignore it,

but it draws us all in...in the end.....
