Fire Fly

Seeing it’s dim light I feel relieved The sun is too strong The moon is too far away The stars are too glittering The headlights are too blazing The taillights make me too emotional The street lamps are too objective The lights from the office buildings are too oppressive The room light is too broad The desk lamp is too direct The flashlight is too tense and The fireworks are too grandiose.... But a firefly is a reminder It's OK to show a modest light In the darkness, then, We see you We know you, and you remind us We are also the light
