My Candle

I need my path to be lit
A place to go and there fit
The dark you valuably disperse
My lost soul you help observe
Your radiance is withering
Your glamour is fading
Burning within for me to reign
How would I you blame?
The light in me is but to kindle
The insight of my innermost is my candle.

Somehow we get lost in the universe seeking to fit in unknown worlds.. We need light, enlightenment, truth, answers.. Thank you for your generous comment.
