Torches

When the torches are lit in the night
Shadows wave and dance in the light
Magic is dispersed weaving effortlessly in the air
Filling you with hope, and removing despair

When the torches that are lit, shine for you
Things anew, you will come to see, it’s true
A truer path, for you awaits, if you can see
One that will someday, set you free

When the torches dance by the flowing stream
Whether it’s in life or in your dream
A reoccurring essence springs information
And light over flows like contamination

When the torches catch your wandering eye
You can see into the flames, and so you sigh
Feeling the comfort that it brings
You can feel your spirit lift as it sings
