Candle In the Dark

She’s a Candle Glowing in the dark… A lighthouse Pointing to the shore… Through gloomy days that seem so dark Through tempests that rage and pour She’s the Oasis That quenches my thirst… The passion Burning in my veins… My heart swells within my chest My passion, my pleasure, my joy, my pain She’s the mystery I never can solve… The balm That soothes my tears… My goal, my zeal, my sole resolve With her I mock and taunt my fears She’s the kiss I can’t forget … Yet the very one That broke my heart… My love, my soul, she did reject My dreams, my hopes, she knocked them flat

Well written and poignantly filled account of true heartbreak. I hope life has given you a reprieve from the misery she caused... Jake
