My Light Is Not Showing

My Light Is Not Showing

I was filled with light ever since ı was a child.

Even as ı grew older it never diminished.

But ı could never show my light to anyone.

No matter how hard ı tried.

*

As ı held a candle to light it up.

My fingers couldn’t open the lighter.

No matter how hard ı tried.

*

I have my light ım sure of that.

Yet when ı want it to show itself to others.

My light never shows up.

*

I wish ı can tell the world.

How Beautiful, my light is.

But how can ı do that when.

My light is not showing.
