Candle But Not the Flame

She walks away easy 
And I feel the pain
She laughs pretty
And I am ugly man
She dreams sweetly
And I am the sleepless
She hugs loosely
And I do hard press
She looks simple 
Just my eyes complicate
She thinks only logic 
I open the emotional gates
Her smile is cute
I think her tooth is huge
Her heart is soft
And I think its rock
She takes the blame
And I feel the guilt
She gives up the argue
And I think I win
I didn't ever know
That I can never win
Who gives up for you
Who takes up the blame
Who can laugh in pain
She thinks not to gain
For she thinks love is game
She thinks she is vain
But I see her a gem
Its not just her name
Candle but not the flame
She is to brighten
My entire darkened den.
