The Candle

The candle
Mocks the black darkness.
A gentle breath
It flickers to evade death
It burns on
Shedding light as an afterthought;
Flickers
To burn silently,
For it lives as long as it burns
Like a pain
That becomes the pleasure of living;
The candle mocks the black darkness
And laughs a life away...
