A Candle In The Window

By: Dave Balentine

warmth of night tears my heart
to weep at such life
to see perfection blazing
this soul rests as the wind rests
this mind watches silently
the point of light
one point of honesty
one speck of purity
in an otherwise infested world
my being focuses on this point
this blazing light that lives
wishes, if only for a moment
that this light would last
with a gust of ignorance
hope is extinguished...
my dreams take flight
