Light Bulb

A light bulb
   that when turned on
   is faint and low, range amber flow
   then as it warms
   the given light
   glows bright and strong
   filling the room.
A love
   born of friendship
   inspires and gives life to each other
   that questions the whys and wherefores
   to become more
   of understanding and acknowledgement
   that one is nothing without the other.
With time, 
   it grows
   or dims
   as the source allows.
