How I Feel pt2

Candle

Light a candle

Ignited by my heart

Flame hugs the wick

It flickers

Staring at the flame

Become hypotised

Start to fall

Down I go

I am drowning

Swim to the top

Resurfaced

Glance at the candle

Wax is melted

Candle is almost

Depleted

Flame is fading

Slowly fading

It does not die

It burns on

Forever lit

I grab the flame

And place it in

My heart

There it will burn

Forever
