My emerald candle

by Brandon Lee   Sep 29, 2016


The night my emerald candle went out it left me in the dark.
It's flame had been so beautiful, though the duration rather short.
I felt a knife strike me in a place, a place where I've felt many.
Another for my collection, a collection that has plenty.
The wound will heal and a scar will surely show.
But the pain of such a wound, is one they will not know.
I will carry on polite as always, showing them a smile.
Though the night will seem so very dark, without my emerald candles fire.
