when life has taught you
all love ends
in pain
it becomes easy
to extinguish every flame
but not him
he’s my trick candle
he burns brighter
the more i try to blow
i have learned
to stop blustering
enjoy the party
and eat
the damned cake

Love this. I think it works as a philosophy for life itself…
Thank you! You’re spot on, Terry.
A party isn’t a party without cake. And a cake isn’t a cake without a candle. And the right candle…
