Flame



So this is how the story ends
The flame just died
And it doesn't make sense.
As I now lay in darkness
Torn, bitter and cold
I will remember love
As a distant shore
Stretching out forevermore.
But mostly, among all things
I will always remember you
As the beautiful flame
Who burned my wings.


- John Emmanuel T. Manalo, 2004
