the candle stick beneath the flame the wick burns bright but all in vain as shadows loom behind the light they hold their secrets black as night the brightness scathes the tallows drip the candle burns it's one way trip till wax has waned and out it goes the way once shown only it now knows

The Candle
the candle stick beneath the flame the wick burns bright but all in vain as shadows loom behind the light they hold their secrets black as night the brightness scathes the tallows drip the candle burns it's one way trip till wax has waned and out it goes the way once shown only it now knows
