I Only Ask today I light a candle from a place I once gathered whose time is now long done tears wash me in sorrow of this curse being so blessed being born with a torrid heart vines twine me to full yield and to just winding twigs in this dry layer of brush but I hold in my hands both today I mourn its passing and hope for a different future twice now to burn in this place the passion once here so strong now white burns to hot melting ash so that tomorrow shall bring the birth of hope of another day today I light a candle for thee I only ask you light one for me |
