The Candle's Life

191/365

The flint sparks on the wick
Existence
Inspiration
Small light
Faint heat
Rapid growth
Tall and bright
Illumination
Long life keeping things visible for those around
Low flame
About to burn out
The candle is all but evaporated
Dim
Near dark
Walls swallowed behind the ever growing void
Resistant fire stands while weak
Fighting inevitability
Striving for microseconds
Shadows close in
Expiration
Nonexistence
