Love scented candle

The house is dark and cold as she comes to her room.
With tears in her eyes she sees clearly her pain.
Holding a candle as she cries,
wanting to see the light of her love.
For years she held this candle unlit,
not wanting to give up on her dreams.
She lights the wick and drops to the floor,
her memories are the shadows dancing on the walls.
She sees the first moment that they met,
on a cold November night where they first knew love.
The way he touched her heart with passion,
like the waves she sent him in a lovers game.
Their wedding day before her eyes so bright,
the way the flowers seemed to bloom.
This light never ending as their hearts hold on,
on this dance where love is their muse.
She recalls the beauty he left in her heart,
with every tear she finds hope again.
Shadows call her to dance one more time,
to leave behind what was meant to die.
Each flame calling her heart out of pain,
each whisper in her ear so divine.
All night long she sees their fate,
dancing before her on the walls.
Her smile lights up the room,
as the flame comes to its end.
As the candle burns out she is home,
resting with her love for all time.
