Candlight of Hope

by Dave Riley - Aries

torn seperated hearts
drawn together with unshakable ties
building blocks of a foundation unyielding
yet silence is shared by both

waves of uncertainty
cloud the chrystal picture
dimming the vision 
once so perfectly clear

despite opposing winds
the flicker of hope continually burns
it may flicker and may fade
but with the unbounding ties 
drawn up in hope
the light is never put out

dreams of whats to come
rush in like a river
carrying with it 
bad memories now washed away 

for what was once a seperation
what was once an emptiness
is replaced by a bound 
of ties unshakable
shared by seperated hearts
bound together by the undying burn of hope 

Reason for writing:

    this girl and I are very close however she lives far away but I know one day we will be close, and as the poem says, I am holding onto that flicker of hope in my heart.
