dont let your candle flame burn out.
dont lose your guiding light.
stand strong against the evil wind.
burn brightly and beautifully. 
ignore all the mocking words the walls whisper
about you being smaller than the rest.
they know nothing of you or your life.
keep shining little one.
keep shining.
melt away your tears
in a puddle of white wax.
keep crying love,
the tears can regenerate new life.

remember the match that gave you life.
a brief end to their short life
will make yours that much longer.
you are a candle;
a symbol of hope for those souls lost.
you are a calling light
with your embery glow
and quick twitches left and right.
you are light in darkened times
allowing us to see
what otherwise would have been concealed.
Do not end
oh please do not die!
do not leave me alone in the dark.
keep burning, love.
keep burning.
