Candle
June 23, 2011
Single Flame
Flickering
Glimmering
Shimmering
The world is darkness
But as long as I can see your glow
Piercing through the night
There is still hope
There is still love
There is still light
The fog of lies and pain blurs together
But I train my eyes on you
And I know
I know deep inside
As long as you burn in the distance
I will not die
I will not die
You are my candle
My only light
