Some candles shouldn't be lit

Perfectly imperfect
   ...from the start...

It swepted over me,
          swift...'twas a dreaded red squall.
T m l n  h l l s l , I  o t s n e  o  up from clown.

Yeah, there was far too much dancing in my head to be still...
                ...until it was said.

So I would say in the end it'd be better...
                          ...that there was no start.

Unless...of course there wasn't,
      only one held a burning candle within the heart.

Checking back, you shouldn't have given whatever
 it could have been a snowball's chance.

Knowing how off putting it seemed...
..you were right to barely give a glance.

Saying there was never a flame is better,
   so on this candle I placed a lid to choke out the tamed.
