this is extremely beautiful
So many cigarettes
So many tears
So many worries
So many fears
Over the years,
Something I learned
Is that happiness
Is something you earned
People come and go
People pass me by
People learn to live
People live to die
Some people live,
But are dead inside
That is I
I am a candle burning in a dark room. Not bright enough to illuminate the space that surrounds, but bright enough to make the shadows dance. My flame, which appears to burn eternally, flutters like a falling leaf. My core slowly melts, pooling at the surface, but my walls keep me upright. The wax, viscous and warm, gracefully drip beside me, as my tears do at this time of night. I burn, burn, burn, into the nothingness I once was. And the darkness returns.
