I am a bulb, thou art my filament. How would I glow without thy attachment? O thou ignite me inside And the glare goes outside.
But for thee, I can't be incandescent.

Why thou hast blocked my way o white, To reach the spot where I could light 'n heal wounded 'n glum heart? Thy this act more pains brought To me, though thou art an alluring sight.
