Candle

the heat of the dripping candle

so hot almost too hot to handle

the flame has been burning

as intense as the sun

but it's been burning too long

soon it's life with be done

but this candle has light up my nights

what emotion it holds

within flickering lights

the constant changing

molding of the wax

just having it there

makes it easier to relax

but all great things must come to an end

and there will be another candle for me to light

will it warm me the way my first did

only if the time is right
