I sit in the middle of a dark room Surrounded my forty eight candles Burning brightly and quietly, they flicker with the slightest breeze One candle is one year of my life, their wax melting graciously to the floor One burns out then another my life is being extinguished swiftly Darkness envelopes me whole a little light and warmth present Twenty four candles out haunting feelings set in What has happened to my life sickening feeling besets me Three to go, its going too fast my final words, my final breathes Pitch black Heart stops I am gone

Candles
I sit in the middle of a dark room Surrounded my forty eight candles Burning brightly and quietly, they flicker with the slightest breeze One candle is one year of my life, their wax melting graciously to the floor One burns out then another my life is being extinguished swiftly Darkness envelopes me whole a little light and warmth present Twenty four candles out haunting feelings set in What has happened to my life sickening feeling besets me Three to go, its going too fast my final words, my final breathes Pitch black Heart stops I am gone
