I believe that the light dependent reactions (i.e. photosynthesis) forms glucose (carbon compound) that can be broken down and used for energy in the light independent reactions (i.e. glycolysis, etc.)

Well typically when refer to carbon on biology it is always in a molecular form. During the light dependent reactions inorganic carbon (carbon dioxide) is converted into organic carbon (glucose). We call this process carbon fixation.
