A candle stops darkness
but only when it is
lit by you
otherwise that too is
confined in the shadows
so if you take the candles
don’t simply hold them
but look to find
other humans
so that each one
lights their own also for you
since only this way
we belong all together
to Humanity
because she lives only with light
while societies
look only at the fire
because they don’t see
the luminous future
within their blackness.
