Like a Candle

Like a candle which flickers and fades
So too will fall our final shade

Ignited with bright light from the onset
The wind challenges us from the start

While some gusts take us to the test,
Through it all we hold tight and fast

In thick and thin we remain strong
Keeping right and avoiding wrong

Though too will set our final sun
And we too will finally succumb
