The Reflection of Shadows: 16

The Reflection of Shadows
A collection of moments
Society6
A little #fbf to sixteen year old me who contemplated the lives of candles.


16

Sixteen candles on the cake,
Briskly burning, all aflame-
Waiting,
Anticipating,
Death by breath.

Make a wish, they all yell out,
I breathe in, deep and proud-
Exhaling,
Prevailing,
Smoke fills the room.

Swirling, twirling all about,
All the candles cheer and shout-
Listen
For the sound
Of the candles crying out.
