Spontaneous Fate
The light
Quivers
And ignites
A life is made
In the darkness
Of a night.
*
Through
Years of strife
It glows amidst
The cycle
Of persistence -
Magnificently exists.
*
Until,
One day
It falters
In combustion
The light becomes
Unfailingly altered.
*
Alas,
The light surely
Reincarnates,
Rebirth
As it begins anew -
Spontaneous fate.
