Poem 8 – The Candle of my Heart

The Candle of my Heart

 
The candle of my heart burns bright
For only a few to see
Shedding a brilliant light
For all that is to be.
 
It lights the way through dark times
When misery blankets all,
It widens the radius of sight,
Guiding me from a fall.
 
I keep the candle aflame
With passion against the night
I burn with hopes and dreams
Battle darkness with their light.
 
I hope my candle gives you sight
Before my heart burns to ash.
I hope my light burns bright enough
For you to see the path.
 
I’ve lit a single candle.  For you.
