Like a Candle

I wrote this poem back in 10th or 11th grade and it was entered into a contest on poetry.com. It made it to the semi finals and was published in one of there books a little while after just figured i would share it.

Like A Candle

So young and yet so fragile

How can i feel like were a burning candle.

Like a candle flame we start out hot but

with time were not.

As with each drop of wax is like a day of

love that drips away with every hug.

Who would have known in three months you

would be gone the flame still there but the

wax is gone.
