A little flame
clinging to oxygen
searching in the darkness
casting shadows with every movement,
but also
lessening the emptiness.
A little flame
combusting with heat
shining in the night
illuminating the unknown with every movement,
dancing with flare.
A little flame
bringing the lost to sight
warming against the chill
inviting comfort with every flicker of self.
A little flame
capable of dimming
capable of strengthening.
A little flame
once, now a wildfire.
