My Light

My dark, handsome friend -
You curl around me like a swirl of smoke.
You tangle yourself in my thoughts
And bend me toward you.
I see your many shapes-
You mask yourself as harmless to my heart.
You blend my love with your hatred
And you distort me.
I cannot stop you -
You have a hold of me too tightly now.
You've stolen all my happiness
And you hurt me still.
My light is gone now-
You have blown out the candle of my heart-
The fire that had yet to burn
With a love that's true.

Again, free verse isn't my thing, but you write quite vividly.
