A burning candle.
A flame that doesn’t go out.
A flame that touches cheeks.
Melts the meat from bones,
This flame that never burns out.
Bones being unsheathed from their,
Mortal selves to last in the night.
The night being a shroud for.
The flames bursting with screams,
Screams with no shown mercy.

I looked up the German words for Burning Candle.
