Your jewelry now cast
Set in stasis by wax
In a candle I named "love,"
Where I threw dead flowers
And other sacred artifacts
Just to let the white wax dry
After I blew out its flame
It sits on my dresser
Unlit, but the jewels sparkle just the same
I put all of my Love in to a candle
Just to avoid feeling this pain
This current, this undertow
Of memories of you
By a shore
