candle burning
Flame consuming wax
Candle burning refers to the act of keeping a candle lit, often for symbolic or ritualistic purposes.
The phrase appears most commonly in burning the candle at both ends, meaning to exhaust oneself by working early and late or by pursuing pleasures while maintaining responsibilities.
A candle-burning vigil keeps flame lit through the night in remembrance or protest.
