Aspirations

Blazing like a shooting star
setting the night sky alight
the beautiful celestial shower of light
Illuminating everything, albeit for a split second

or

The flickering flame
One that doesn't take heed to what the wind tells it
The flame that lasts a lifetime
only enlightening ones who bother to come near enough

So who do YOU want to be?

The flame is the brightest before it extinguishes...and so is the shooting star.
But i'd think the star has a longer staying life considering it has been up there for quite some time..no?

The flame, I guess.

Its genetic.
