verse

Beyond Time

by Silviu Crăciunaș

when we met
we seeded a candle
it sprouted fast
smelling of love
and burning passions
we left it alight
to warm up our dreams

today
a spot of wax
remains glued to our hearts
worn out by time
only the smoke
a prisoner of love
is still dancing
believing that
candles burn forever
in a place beyond time
