Candle of Death
March 7, 2022
Burning Flames turn to dark smoke
The thing that once lit up a room is now blown out
The candle with its wavering flames trying its hardest to not let the light fade
Death is a candle lacking the oxygen it needs, the poor candle suffocates
The poor candle finally resting. It tried and it fought till the last breath
At last the journey is done every drip of wax pooling down to the bottom of the lukewarm glass dish, its done, no more wax to melt no more air to breathe.
The wick once shiny, new and full of life now burned black and dead.
