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.
