Love Poem: When Dim Candles Melt

When Dim Candles Melt

Love me in shadowed light of twilight gone
with whispered words softly spoken and new
as I will love you till' night turns to dawn
and our love is found more precious and true
warm is the night as the dim candles melt
and welcomes the day as red skies arrive
when coupled arms unwind from love heartfelt
as lovers, we'll enjoy being alive
hold me closer before parting ensues
and time is consumed in silent reply
as the love we've found quietly pursues
until kisses part in a softer sigh
to find the wondrous dawn with warm splayed light
enchanted by passions found in the night
