Lost and forlorn <br />Encompassed in darkness <br />A lonely soul <br />trying to stay afloat <br />against the gales of time <br />survival so vital <br />destined to glow <br />While the vile wind blows <br />am a candle <br />Harbinger of hope <br />dispelling gloom <br />while dream flowers bloom <br />Vigilant till the first ray of sun <br />Spent, my work is done.<br /><br />Meena Iyer<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/a-candle-in-the-wind/
