candle light
flickering flame
waxborne light
glowing softly
hiding frightful things just beyond the edge of the glow
extinguished with a breath
matches scattered on the floor
celebrations held off
until the warm glow returns
light of our nights for oh so long
now just for emergencies
banished by a magic switch
or a cord pulled once
