CANDLE IN THE WIND

You burn the bridge
And ask why I don’t visit
I’ll walk the other way
And let time make you a memory

I never made you
Never could cut through you
Your core is a rock
The facade? Just an icing

I dug for the diamonds
And kept churning out dust
I reached for the skies
But just a shooting star

Unfathomable? Unattainable?
Maybe, just unreachable
I could whisper between the distance
But you defined you’re distant

I did, I do, I will
But this cross, I can’t bear
I am no savior
Just another lost soul

  1. The words paint a beautiful emotional picture of how love eventually fades away, after a long hopeful struggle for survival.
    Splendid.
