Flame.

by ?   Feb 1, 2005


Burning and burning
Fading slowly to the end
Hypnotizing me into a servant
Giving me only ash to mend

I can see it burning me
But I don’t feel it at all
I watch it try to carry on forever
And I watch it slowly fall

The flame is meant to bring me warmth
Meant to give me some feeling once again
I know its getting late and I’ve been here for hours
But when will it go? When?

Should I leave it burning?
Fading slowly to its painful death
Or shall I end it now
Blow out the flame with one last breath
