I Remember The Day You Told Me

I remember the day you told me
That you didn't believe anymore
That people don't have souls
We came from nothing
And go to nothing
That's what you said

How, in one second, you were alive
And in the next, you were gone

Just like your father

And all the time you spoke
I listened patiently...
And then it was time to
Play game of candles
But you got angry and
Blew them all out

That's when you felt
The darkness touch you
And it felt cold and empty

I re-lit it just in time
But you were scared
And you blamed me for scratching you

But i was only trying to protect you
Only trying to stop you from making
A terrible mistake
