I am a candle,

Without the flame.

I am a painting,

That’s missing a frame.

I am a tunnel,

That meets no light.

I am a lion,

That can’t fight.

I am a runt,

With no litter.

I am a punching bag,

With no hitter.

I want to be thoughtful,

But don’t think.

I am a pen,

That contains no ink.

I am a crow,

With no flock.

I am a key,

With no lock

I am lost,

With no sight.

When in darkness,

What if I can’t find the light?
