The candle

I watched intently as the wax slowly flowed from the candle
The flickering flame melted my memories upon the mantle
I prayed the flame would not go out taking all that I cherish
Love, life,laughter and all things good and rich
In the flame I see the smile that touched my heart
Fond recollections of events in the distant past
Shadows of a time once glorious played upon the wall
Alone,I sit and wait to answer to your call
Our candle held so much hope,sweet serenity in a world turning way too fast
Can time stand still, Allowing the candle's flame to last?
But now the slowly melting wax signals the end
Of hopes and dreams, no more can I pretend
It has been a journey for you and I
The time has come to say a sad goodbye
I place the keys to the door upon the mantle
And take one last look at the melted candle.
