A moment unexpected, <br />A flash of lightning in my life, <br />I want to grab a hold of it, <br />And take it close to my heart, <br />To keep the darkness at bay, <br />And keep the light near to me, <br />But i feel the pulsing heat, <br />And i know that it will burn, <br />So my hands fall back, <br />And i watch as it fades, <br />Soft and cold it silps away, <br />I know it is too late now, <br />And as i am left in the dark, <br />I know i am to blame, <br />So i reach out once more, <br />My hope bright in my eyes, <br />But it really is too late now, <br />My hope dies with the flame, <br />I fall back into darkness.<br /><br />Emma Wright<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/untouchable/
