There is a candle in your heart



There is a candle in your heart,
ready to be kindled.
There is a void in your soul,
ready to be filled.
You feel it, don't you?
You feel the separation
from the beloved.
Invite Him to fill you up,
embrace the fire.
Remind those who tell you otherwise that love,
comes to you of its own accord,
and the yearning for it
cannot be learned in any school.

Bahare! do you know,you force me
searching my candle.
could you borrow me a match?

Dear atrebehesht
I suppose you yourself have the match to kindle your candle...
but if you want me to help you I'm ready to give you the best of matches....

It is very nice. Thank you for posting. I feel that void sometimes very much. In that time I feel I am a mountain of ice. (Embrace the fire) reminded me of a movie that the lover kept his hand on some candles till his beloved returned. The candles are very hot but he did so for the sake of love. It will be great if can do it because that time I know that I am a true lover.
