reflection of stars shining
solemnly onto the broken hemisphere
penetrating into earth
offering h o p e
admiration, serendipity
but little do we know —
the reason behind this gesture,
this kindness,
sacrifice
we have failed
to understand:
candles burn to bring light to others
some humans offer too much joy
to those in sorrow
with none left for themselves.
just empty and
hollow
