The Innermost Candle

As burning within your light      																	         	 I see the darkness put to flight                                                                   											 I was a glowing ember by night                     															Your matchless breath kindles love ignites															 Encircling sway left and right																	You keep me on the path so bright           															 Glorious though cloven we unite			 														Burning together again in this epic fight                                                                     										The only alsoran is the dark night    																Fleeing defeated from our sight	John Beam for By Candle Light contest
