ShadowPeople

Dark fingers reach out hungrily
Towards the flickering flame
Trying to make it collapse
For this is their game

This candle that is your heart
Bends and flows with the wind
So fragile yet so powerful
By the darkness pinned

There is an everlasting struggle
A partial eclipse at all times
These shadow people are omnipresent
But a sound from the heart always chimes

Every heart beats strong and true
At one time or another
Fight the darkness, darling, fight it
Give in to thy fiery mother

Fire fuels the bravest hearts
It leaves a dauntless mark
Let your heart be pure
And triumph over the dark
