Candlelight
If only I could wish success
upon a generation~
I'd deeply gaze
into the burning core of my
Candlelight~
A flame from flame.
Brightness shared in a selfless way.
And with that~
the darkness that had once
Engulfed the lonesome compartment~
Lays but defeated~
by the dying melting wax.
Burning silently~
with a non - luminous flame;
Selfless~
As the light is passed on from one light
Generation to another.
