Incandescence...

Illuminate me, find in me a bright spot that you can come close to in order to feel safe. It may be that life is dark enough to warrant such escapes, but I think we all need a place to harbor our fears and tears. Incandescent, because it's ever glowing. Incandescent, because it's warm and comforting. Whether it's that teddy bear you've always held tight to, or that moral idea that you've followed so rigorously, I find the light that is found inside is always burning. A never-ending wick and a foundational wax candle support this flame, but it is the flame that constitutes all the energy used to better the self.
