Have you ever been so insecure in yourself that you change to be what that person sees you as, or to please that person? Or do you feel secure in yourself and stand tall? Do you let them see themselves through your eyes or do you wear blinders as to their faults? Are you the candle or the mirror?
I shimmer in your light, I am your honesty
You stand before me and gauge yourself
in my eyes
Insignificant, you quiver, flicker,
waver until you burn yourself outI mourn your loss, you will be missed
I am fickle, I take on the persona of the
next light that stands before me
I am their honesty, I shimmer in their light
You stand before me and gauge yourself
in my eyes
Insignificant, you quiver, flicker,
waver until you burn yourself outI mourn your loss, you will be missed
I am fickle, I take on the persona of the
next light that stands before me
I am their honesty, I shimmer in their light

A candle burning itself out, sputtering.
Each day a blessing
