Candles

A bright, soft flame
Illuminating, lighting up
A room taken over by darkness
A mind filled with despair
However minuscule the flame
It gives hopes to
Students, preachers, travelers
To souls who have lost their path
In a vast place with many a winding road
A place so confusing
In a place so complex
Yet a simple flame
Can set us right
Can show us the way
The way to happiness
The way to peace
To a brighter, better future.
