Candle Poem by Ana Rose Trazo

Like a candle glowing in the dark
Couldn't find my way
Yet I know I'm shining up.
I am seen even from afar.
Like a lonely candle, glowing in the dark,
Lights will soon turn low
As my wick and wax get burned.
And like a melted candle that glowed in the dark
I'll be unnoticed and forgotten.
Some people will forget how I lighted them up
Some would pick up my melted wax,
Would wash me clean and heat me to melt
Then let me hold to another new wick
Making me into a new candle stick.
Some would see me as a useless melted candle wax
and would just step on me and let me wither.
And the lonely candle that once glowed in the dark
Will forever be gone in the darkness.
