You lit
a candle
so fragrant
such sweet
aroma
But the wax:
colorless
Tick, tick
tick, Tick,
tick, tick,
Tick, Tick,
A little flick
A fickle wick
of cotton knit
flickers quick
Melting wax
slipping slick
Tick, tick
Flickering flame
flickered, fades
Ash.

I like this a lot. You took a really interesting approach to writing this, especially with the meter and the concept. Great job.
