Where a soft glow fights the dark

Smarika Pandey

In a place of endless shadows,
a single flame dances,
where a soft glow fights the dark
conquering it and making a spark!
It doesn’t roar
But with steady voice it whispers soft-
A fragile flame not strong to cause fire
Yet a hope to keep, a thing to admire.
The flame of daring dreams,
Though tiny its rays flicker
Making a courage bloom
And not letting the “hope” gloom.
Let the dark swallow you-they said,
But the spark keeps the flame burning
It carves its path through glowing in shadow
Through faint and ways little and narrow.
It wasn’t a fire-huge
But a flame just enough;
Enough to melt the frozen dreams,
To relax the buried fearful screams.
A small flame it is
But changes the shape of darkness around
While others mock it- “you’re fire is weak!”
I believe to strive for mountains peak.
Despite it being weak and fragile,
I’ll forever rise the flame and never let it end
For in its warmth and glow, I’ve come to see:
That i hold a dawn- all inside of me!
