Melt Away

A flame solitary and silent

Arises from the center

Of our shattered life

Glowing and flickering

Bright light descending

Finding the hope within

Melting away the sadness

Into a pool of fuel

It uses that energy to shine

While it glows so bright

What is not touched

By it soft yellow light

There is no darkness

Near this wick

No dark spots at all

Slowly consuming

And melting away

The hard substances

Of our pain
