Life

Life is a candle with a bright shining light,
it burns brightly and and divinely,
with thousands of bright prospects,
waiting to be used,
but slowly,
the light goes dim,
the shine it once had was gone,
it dances and flickers,
and it dies down,
and now there is nothing to do but to take this pile of useless wax,
and throw it into the trash,
such is life.

  1. Nice poem, great work, Peiyu! I think that you basically highlighted all the points in life worth noting. Using a candle as a comparison to life is a very creative way to write a poem and I look forward to reading another of your poem! I hope you write more poems of this kind in the future.
