Lover’s Suicide

Snuffing out the eternal flame

Allowing fear to guide

No confidence in yourself

Preferring to run and hide

Wax trails forming

Tears burned in time

The light will burn out

Never again will it shine

It is not an easy path

Twin flames are rare

The flame will go out

If not accepted with care

Never to touch

Only to burn

Souls ripped apart

Hearts that yearn

True happiness rejected

Foolishly denied

Punishing yourself

Lover’s suicide

Always a connection

Forever friends

A light still shines

Hands extend

Fingertips touch

Hearts shutter in pain

We share a  soul

But destroyed the flame
