Candle

The candle burns so brightly
the one you hold so tightly
it's so clear
the flame is still burning
the way you're still yearning
she let go long ago
but you can't bring yourself to blow out the flame
the way you took the blame
no picture in the frame
no more lipsticks marks on her cup
just the distinct smell of her perfume
the same aroma as your scented candle
the candle's getting lower
she can't stay forever
one blow
gone
