A Father's Light


There are few words

Four years of my life

The greatest times I have ever seen, ever will see

They fuel the other years as if they are all worth living

The smoke burns in my soul as it burned in your lungs

 

Gone

Life so precious, so short, so inspirational

It is never about the darkness of death but the light of life

Like a candle

Before it fades it can light up infinite other candles

Or not even one

 

You have set my heart on fire

I live for you, because it is you who gave me life
