candle

You shine so bright,

Blessing us with your light,

Around the sun so insignificant,

As he shadows your magnificence,

But night will cone with no electricity,

And people will flock to the city,

Begging you to flicker for them please,

But you're not at ease,

Because of the times you were forgotten in the dark,

When people didn't notice your spark,

You don't need them they need you,

Until the moon kills your mood as she replaces you.
