I am a candle burning  
To give you light.
My tears make the flame go out.
Quick! Get a match!
I can’t let you know that I have feelings too.
I burn to give you light
But as I burn,
The light inside myself gets dimmer
Slowly fading away.
You are the reason for the tears
That put out my flame.
But I get a match,
And keep burning for you
Because it is my job to give you light.
