Lavender Tears

A tall purple candle, burning in a dark room.

Unaware of it's certain impending doom.

Lit for decoration, and nothing more,

Blown out by air from an opening door.

Purple wax drips down it's side

Leaking from the very inside.

Drying insignificantly without any fears

Beautiful, briefly used, lavender tears.
