Devil incarnate

Just because
I’m man-made;
flesh and bone;
the light in my eyes
shines unfailing…
shines as bright
as the sun;
sacrificing it’s light;
to our melting bodies;
to prolong our radiance.
And your grim-reaper hands;
constantly waiting…
for my eyes to shut;
long enough for you,
to give you chance
to shine too.
To become,
the finest candle
in our darkest hour.
