Candles, Me And Your Gale

On the first day of Christmas
     I litted a red candle for one
On the second day...
     A white candle for him
On the third day...
     A pink candle for her
In the succeeding days
     I litted a candle for souls of the old days.

For twelve days I litted a candle 
     Twelve days I prayed
Twelve days all my candles stayed
     Twelve graves I prayed for and stayed.

With your strong winds
     Me and the twelve candles I litted
Gale you... you blew away!



           "Don't stop praying and caring!
                  In time, prayers will all be answered...
                         in caring."

(Prosebite)
