Dear light switch,
How I pity you.
How I wish I could comfort you.
The troubles you go through.

Dear light switch,
Your kind, all of you are separated.
You wish to feel as if you belong,
Yet your desires are neglected.

Dear light switch,
Your vitality is undeniable.
Yet you are not praised,
And if the lights fail, you are liable.

Dear light switch,
You live a hard life.
The struggles you face,
But oh, how you strive!

Dear light switch,
You are always ready.
You are always willing.
Doing a perfect job, the lights stay steady.

Dear light switch,
I will always stay near.
Keeping you up always.
For I know, the dark, you fear.
