My candle

My candle flickered through all the darkness which we grew
My candle shone ahead when we knew nothing but dread
My candle gave us light when we gave in to the fight
My candle lit the way even on our darkest day 
I have the candle here, and it represents my *****
Belief I will avail; I must refuse to fail
