Burning Candle

Can you feel the feel the Fire of My Soul
Slowly, quietly, dim away?
Extinguish like the final flicker
of a flaming candle.
I don't know why?
But I fear to sleep.
No not Eternal Sleep, but that
which leaves you thinking
with the stars.
I feel this searing pain
with an inner fear
that no words can explain.
I feel the questions of My Life,
of My Destiny,
Asking,
Asking,
Asking,
And I have no answer.
with an inner fear
that no words can explain.
I feel the questions of My Life,
of My Destiny,
Asking,
Asking,
Asking,
And I have no answer.
So everyday I die a little,
everyday,
everyday,
everyday,
until I ......
pass........
away.

Below is a picture of the notebooks that hold these poems, written about 25 years ago and are now being published for the first time here on STEEMIT.COM. I will try to post 1 every Sunday.
I wonder if these UCLA notebooks are still $2.25?
