holding tight when it wants to let go
Swinging back and latching on
creating this stirring within my soul
the thump that leaves its interior
circulates echos in my head
confusing thoughts that are so critical
in figuring meanings of the unsaid
A spark so gently twinkles
in the depths hidden inside
longing to be a firecracker
creating artistic life in the sky
filled with uncertainty and fear
of the flame quickly dwindling,
the spark shies away
from every sort of kindling
then a breeze of persisting true love
sweeps through the valleys carved deep
flaring the spark into a glorious fire
and into the crevices it seeps.
Spreading wildly through my heart
but still modestly contained
the fire triggers a passionate love
a love that cannot be explained.
