Recharging Sparks*
There was a passion
a fire
an energy that threw
sparks out of our lips
As I watched your eyes
crystalize them before
they reached me sometimes
I tried
and when I didn't
then you tried
we're both exhausted
we're stuck
We'd get frustrated
with lack of own
and then feed
off each others
bits of glow
for days
Journeys end
new ones begin
I have to close chapters
but will always revisit
this one
over and over
as if it were new
each time
My eyes will always
light up
at even the slightest
thought of you
Possibilities are created
from that place
if I stay long enough
But somewhere between
the corner and the middle
is where I find myself
on the page
And I turn over like
a car trying to start
but no one is here
to help me recharge
I must recharge
I've not even began
and I drain so quickly
if it takes forever
I'll wait
Until edge of ice
reaches out it's hand
and dulls my shame
Till things of pure
gold replace
all the trash in this place
I know there's a spot
you'll save
I'm just not sure
when I'll regain
strength and courage
To say
to sit face to face
without falling
on my face
I'll keep trying
till then
I'm here
Knowing
what we had
was enough
To keep soul happy
and I'll try to stay
on trail you showed me
My own
and if I need you
I'll ask again
