Four candles were burning slowly. It was so silent around as you could listen to them talking to each other. The first said: “I am the peace but nobody can keep me any longer!” The flame disappeared slowly.
The second said: “I am the faith but people don’t think anymore that I am non-replaceable, so I will stop burning.” When it finished to speak, a small wind stopped it to burn.
“I am love but I have no force anymore to stay burning. People exclude me and do not understand my role.” And the third candle stopped burning too.
A child entered the room, saw the three candles and get scared. The fourth candle told him: “Don’t be afraid. As long as I am still burning, we can incense the others. I am the hope!”
“The stars can be seen in the dark wet mad.” Nezami
