Candle Lit Heart

A febel flame 
Now resides
Because of you
Alot to gain
But more to lose
Because of you

Your voice holds a candle to a lightless heart
Life now surges through a forgotten circut
Unused as it is, it still feels firmiliar
Without you beside me the light grows dim.......

Though not out, it barley burns
Throughout the fortress, for your presence it yerns

Like an overfilled balloon it grows when your near

I step on myself you pretend not to notice
While i keep flapping like a migrating locust
I still dont know what to make of you
Dont even know how to leave when you want me to
With you i could stand forever
We could be toghether

Or we wont
But i cant know
Because of you
