The scent of a candle beckons my soul
To appear like an apparition
The aromatherapy of your skin
Is inhaled and freely given
Darkness flickers dim to bright
As the flame breathes in life
A whiplash smile that envelops you whole
I devour you through the night
I taste you to moisture...mmm...you ooze
As the flame colors our skin
Dawn never comes like we do
Until the candle dims
