Candle Flame

It's so easy

your life snuffing out

like a candle flame

 

The flame bright

you're young

 

the flame flickering out of sigh

you're ould

lived a life

faced obsticles

 

It took you so much time

to grow

to understand

 

but it's so easy

to take it out

the flame

your life

 

a box dropping

a sick cartoon

of a piano

an iron pole

crushing you

 

why is it

so easy to destroy?

to destroy life,

a building,

a thriving population

 

A tree

tall
strong

It took 200 years

but sudden death nears

 

It took 200 years

to grow to its current glory

but when the chainsaw sounds

the teeth cutting through

 

200 years wasted

that's the tree's story

 

to live

to struggle

 

Effortless

to snuff out

the candle flame
