Candle
April 20, 2017
I’m lit
Bright and as hot
as the sun
I can have confidence
I can light up anywhere
I am as beautiful
as a star
but the more you’d need me
I’d be gone
and if you want to play
with my fire
what I would do
won’t be pretty
I can burn you
but I’m sensitive
your words
can be just like a blow
you could turn my light off
I’m a candle

My name is Briana and this poem seems interesting to me and hopefully to others it is amazing how an object can describe you.
