Flickering Flame

Dwindling light of a flickering flame

Looking at your agility I manage to remain sane

Symbol of hope one might say

A silver lining on a dark disastrous day

As the hot glorious orange sedately blends with calm soothing blue

In ad-mist of this chaos, your alluring beauty becomes embodiment the fragile truth

Enlightening the path you make me aware of the blood coursing through my veins

The burn that gets harsher by the minute makes me empathetic towards other’s pain



What’s your secret? What is your essence?

Why do I feel enchanted by your mere presence?

Even isolated I don’t feel alone anymore

To an entirely new dimension, you open this closed door

As the emptiness vanishes I am engulfed by this new wave of emotions

As a curl appears on my lips, even in utter defeat I am not broken

Atmosphere completely changes even if the circumstances are still the same

It’s indeed magical, the sheer strength you give me, dwindling light of flickering flame…
