[hometext] => my first attempt at writing and submitting a poem :) hopefully it's ok
[bodytext] => When all the lights go out, And the moon is all we have, We stay safe and secure, Under the protection of our candlelight. The light promises warmth and easily gives, It is what we need, ignoring the present. It reveals our dark surroundings, While we remain by our candlelight. The wax burns and the moon remains, The flame distorts the silver light and creates our own. We are breaking away from the earth, We rebel with our precious candlelight. Silver changes to daylight as the moon shies away, The strength from the candle diminishes. Its exuberance is taken by the sun’s growth, As it outmatches our candlelight. The earth notices our presence, And we notice its existence. It’s not the same place it was moments ago, When we were guarded by our candlelight.
