I look at that minute red candle; Sighing and flickering in the dark. You are beside me; extollling the many Virtues, of the stifling night. Stifling, I say, not because I am marooned, in here, with you. Suffocated, I feel, because-- Well, all the windows are closed. I like the propinquity of us; You, leaning on me; prattling nonstop. Me, listening to the melodic cadences, Of your soothing voice. How can I be so ensorcelled by you? How can I be beguiled by someone, So child-like, delicate, and spontaneous; Yet, so sturdy and so obdurate as you? Like the candle, coruscating, doggedly; As if nothing, else, is more relevant; Than illumining this darkened world; Like you, inveigling me to fall. For you. Err. This is an imagined scenario between a guy and a girl. Was thinking, using the viewpoint of the guy. Hehe. #love #candle #yqbaba
