My lantern of love
Burn for me still (Lantern light challenge)

You are the lantern of my love
Always burning bright.
You provide me with guidance
Every day and every night.
A love that comes in silence
It burns only with your love.
βπ₯β€οΈβπ₯β€οΈβπ₯β€οΈβπ₯
Lantern of my love
Always brighter than a star
All your feelings and emotion
Lighting up my life wherever you are.
I feel your love and devotion
Always burning brightly from afar.
βπ₯β€οΈβπ₯β€οΈβπ₯β€οΈβπ₯
Lantern of my love
You donβt seem to burn as bright.
I am confused and troubled by what I see
And now you are just a flicker in the night
Have you lost those special feelings for me?
Is this why your brightness is going out?
βπ₯β€οΈβπ₯β€οΈβπ₯β€οΈβπ₯
Lantern of my love
You once shone so bright
But now there is only a ghost of a flame
Alone and in darkness tonight.
In tears, I cry your name
My lantern of love has no flame.
βπ₯β€οΈβπ₯β€οΈβπ₯β€οΈβπ₯
Till next time,
Calvin
