But inside...I know
That perhaps of a spark of it is still there

And that very spark,
It will grow and grow, faster and faster...
Just like the way,
A perfectly round cherry does

And from that little orb of light,
It will bloom,
Burst.

Give way the gooey goodness inside.
Empty it all until it is free.

Explode.
Crackle.
As if celebrating its final achievement,
Showering sparks absorbed by the air.

As they heavily rain down,
Like a group of shooting stars.

What was once a spark...
Now a firework.
Hope. Confidence. It will soon show its true form.

I see the shadows
From the corner of my eye
They fall near me and dart across the sky
My mind is wrapped around
What facts can’t define
Time wasted
Running out of time
I’m waiting for you and what you might find
I’ve decided it’s going to work this time
A tug at my heart
As I see the shadows part
I should have known
The warning was the spark

Where has my passion gone?
I no longer seem to have a drive.
Is there a lost light switch I just forgot to turn on?
There was a time where my creative spirit used to thrive
now I just sit in the dark
Now I do not know what to do
I just need to find a bright spark
that will bring back my life together like glue
Where might I find it?
Where?

Compared to the universe full of stardust,
How small the spark is that lights a fire?
That keeps me up at night, that keeps us
Alive,
Keeps us burning bright.
Kindling for a kinship, a friendship, a bond more
Infinitesimal than we are
Little ants,
More chemical, more toxic in smaller doses,
More blazingly erratic,
More universal than the stardust
That is us.

The night has overcame the day,
The light has been taken away.
Their Souls are shading,
Toward darkness they are heading,
Humanity has been taken
The spark within their eyes has been stolen
Gloom has fulfilled their eyes
Lies, lies and lies has become their lives...

Who are you
but a spark in my bone matter
a bright ball of
green energy bouncing around
the ocean blue of my heart
residing in some sort of residual
cave of dreams that I conjured up
many nights in a row
many long
barren months ago
under the influence of sleep
your tall shadow frame
blocking the view
and my hearth of alacrity
bounding out so true
for what it’s worth, new friend,
you really have me moved.

Fire burning in my heart;
Open up, let out the sparks.
Fire rushing through my veins;
Set the whole world ablaze.
Few around because they've learned--
Get too close, you'll get burned.
Fire rushes across the plain.
Forest home goes down in flames.

But I never did mind a little heat.
It keeps me up and on my feet.
Rejuvenates the earth it's scorched--
So light me up, I'll be the torch.
They're so afraid of the destruction,
For bridges burn when there's combustion.
But something I have come to know:
The best bridges are made of stone.

Something strange about her eyes,
One look at her and all my pain dies,  
Now we are apart but I know time flies,  
Everything can lie but the eye never lies,  

The color of her eyes darkest dark,  
In her eyes is the magical spark,  
When I have her I don't need light,  
Her eyes enlighten my night,  

But when she's away from my sight,  
I have got a lot of battles to fight,
I slowly turn pale and white,  
Can't decide what's wrong, what's right

I never lied when I said your eyes were the stars in my dark night.....
Her eyes....

Trapped in my mind
the cage of which there is no release...
Endless time
a myth I hold on to which brings no peace...
These hands... attached to me...
not truly mine...
a bowl of thought seeps through them...
I'm losing my mind.

Vision blurring...
alphabet soup is what I see.
No words form...
I ***** out my belief.
You're disgusted!
Your life full of ****.
You don't care...
I'm no one...
I swear I'm legit.

I feels you.
Though different neurons...
and separate plains...
I'm thankful to breathe smoke
and momentarily ease the pain.

I dare you!
Shred off my garments!
Release the true me within!
Then spark up that stoge
and judge
my
naked cigarette.
