Forbidden Past of Candlelight

Moonlight candleglow
Flickering laughter
Set spirits alight

Crimson candlewax
Cascading slowly
Memories in firelight

Sapphire blazing heart
Feeding eager flame
Passion soaking through

Entrancing splash of luster
Blossom teardrop scheme
Gracious smile so true

Brush naught thy luring shimmer
Innocence deceiving
Forbidden stroke of yearn

Locket of bliss
But for the eyes to spy
To touch a searing burn

Cage of no tomorrow
Swallowed key of yesterday
Within a jail of present

Lie enraptured by the Candle
Dim shadows play on walls
Counting silhouetted moments
