Unlit Candle
Unlit candle, dead of night
Access to matches, unable to light
Invisible days, lonely nights
I wait and hope to find lost life
Candle and I are a lot alike
Much to give when set alight
But the flame is gone
No light to give
Need help, no point
No life to live
Unlit candle gathers dust
Abandoned tools left to rust
Lying in bed, not wanting to move
Just wanting to sleep, no more life rules
