Candles weep if you don’t make a wish twice she told you

you end up projecting things that never land

but mini glimmers of light are enough to fulfill

checkered sins in the bottles you often spill

you live in a haze because your fantasies keep you saved

as long as you see what you want… hope will never be vacant

even when the world turns its back on you ..you’ll see it as a sign to fight right through

I admire your ignorance as I watch you go ablaze and I will often utter the words “I’m amazed”

amazed at running head-first into armored walls because as a kid you were told that candles weep if you don’t abide by their ways
