If my heart was a candle,

could you feel its warmth through a hug?

If my heart was a candle,

could you use its light to get through the difficult days?

If my heart was a candle,

could you keep it from getting extinguished?

If my soul was a candle,

could you see the wonder of God?

If my soul was a candle,

could you encourage my flame to grow?

If my soul was a candle,

could you be there when I am running low?

If my mind was a candle,

could you handle my racing thoughts, going all different directions?

If my mind was a candle,

could you be like a kid exploring melted wax, engaging with and poking me to think deeper?

If my mind was a candle,

could you celebrate when I am shining?

…………………

If my heart was a candle, I would give it to you.

If I was a candle, I would melt into you.
