Candles

The old candles have burned away,
with these lessons learned.

Brand new candles is what I have for you,
to mark the day, of the changing in every way,
of what I could so true, be to you.

With help from heaven above,
and God's endless love,
and my love for you, 
that would rival his.

I count these minutes, hours and days,
till your love does turn back my way,
and come back to stay.

Heart of my heart,
soul of my soul,
Love of my life.
