052. As The Darkness Pulls Its Cloak Across The Sky Poem by Jaden Knight

As the darkness pulls its cloak across the sky
I let the curtains fall into place
I take a candle from my pocket
and light it with a single match

The candle glows just like my heart
a reflection of my soul
my eyes once dull now glow again
ignited by your love

Distance is nothing compared to love
I can feel your candle far away
in my mind I can see your face
but in my heart I feel your caring arms
keeping me safe from danger

A fire roars inside me
a sign of my burning desire
to be with you
to share your thoughts
no matter what happens

As I sit down in my chair to go to sleep
I look at the candle burning bright
watching over me until morning
but even if the candle dies
our love will always remain
