Can't help myself

Pardon this poetic posting...I can't help myself. It's self-expression I guess.

Untitled #1

You fall from my memory;
Gracefully;
as a star from the perling of mother sky.
Soundless;
You burn in the atmosphere of time.
You are but a moment,
a flash,
captured amid one million flickering lights
reflected in my eyes.
Never to be forgotten,
but gone just the same.

Untitled #2

Memories of what once was
and never will be
drip from my body
as wax.
They cover me and change me.
No longer the straight and unburned candle
I am melted, manipulated and formed,
though still burning.
The memories that slide from my skin
collect in pools at my feet
and make me who I am.
