darkness was all i could remember
cold and wet on summer
i felt hope is nowhere to be found
and my breathing is the only sound
that could be heard in this world

but then i saw a light
just a little bit above my head
not too bright
not too far
like a candle on a tar

in my boring days
i noticed the light getting bigger
and saw candle wax as it grew
i tried to reach above
but it burned my hand as i touch

i waited patiently
even if it gets hotter
i didn't care what happened to me
until i saw a lady
curled up into a ball sleeping

she's the one producing the light
like an angel coming down to me
but only she is made of fire
and i am made of wax
turned to see my wings are melting

i waited and waited
until she can finally see me
i waited and waited
even if my wings are slowly melting
and then she opened her foxy eyes

as the candle wax is on my level
we reached for each other's hand
for the first time we hugged
and kissed a moment
until it felt forever

and as we kissed
the candle slowly burned down
so does my wings melting down
until the light is finally gone
along with me
