Candle
Silently, surrounded by darkness
Stands a candle in the wind
Fighting to stay alive, unaware,
Of the joys that it brings
So busy we get in our lives
Lost in the daily grind
We forget, how much we mean
To the people we leave behind
People that need your love
Sometimes don’t even ask
When they need your love and care
‘Coz you’re too busy with your tasks
What do we work for, pray tell me
If not for family and loved ones?
If they are neglected throughout, then
What work have we truly done?
Live like a candle,
Facing the winds all alone
Lighting up lives nevertheless
Guiding lost people home
