A flickering candle lights the night
Like a solemn wish in fading light
In my heart which burns so bright
The path it shines on yet unclear
Not knowing which way to steer
As the night moves on , an owl begins its mournful call
Images of forlorn past entwine the heart and tear it apart
Even as hope dawns to embrace me and vanquish my fright
I knew love had chanced upon me, like a 10,000 watt light !
Once again the soul quivers at the piteous heart's plight
For it senses that love has taken flight
I know not....should I follow after?
or hush my desires behind polite laughter?
Must I? should I... repress my passions? and why??
Storm of flaming desires transcends the rectitude... why?
Ask not so many questions "Why?", spread passions wing and let it fly
Let it soar high into the realms of unending joys
don't clip my wings...don't read me my rules...let me soar in virgin skies
quivering lips, drooping eyelids, heaving breaths, feel the ecstasy seeping deep within
As heated tentacles play upon molten wax
And the burning flame lights up the night.
