Heinous Background
An impression can at times last a lifetime
Where time fails, it is etched in memory
To flicker and perish among my unlit wicks
The darkness tempts me to strike a match
I dearth to start a fire to burn away my past
However, you are a craven light switch
For someone to divert my attention
And guide me to the glory, I rightly merit
That's where it belongs.
