love candles aren't blown out, love candles burn like crazy, some burn longer than others, but to blow one out, is a sin. i thought our candle would slowly stop burning, the wax, would harden, and the flame would trickle away, slowly. we would be okay, it wouldn't be a sudden burst of hurt. the flame flickered quick, once. and you took a huge breath, and just like the big bad wolf, you blew the hay, the sticks and the bricks, to the ground. they fell down around me as i cried. you blew out the love candle, while i was still trying to keep it burning.
