Two Candle Flames Poem by Mark Heathcote

Two Candle Flames



Two candle flames dance
oh, how they're longing to be re-entwined
wanting only the annihilation of each other
oh, how they're subdividing, till it is finally, time
to be naturally extinguished.
Oh, how they're lolling in each other's arms
two candles flame's waxing-and-waning
saving nothing till later-
their love is the leftover spelter of
colliding stars.
Oh, how love is an equal symbiotic genocide,
a long-lost force with universal survivors
licking at the wounds of eternal darkness
in essence, we're the solace of eternity
and the binding glue light in each other?
