In our quiet moments of burning brilliance
we shine like sparks
flashes in the dark
cooling as we touch the world
our hearts and minds
reignite what little light remains
Sometimes our most beautiful moments are the most fleeting, never to be captured on film or paper

One day, when you leave this place, it will spark something inside of you.
It's going to create a burst of flames that you can not control.
Your shadow will appear.
And your mind will be covered with emotion.

When this happens, I don't want you to run from it.
I want you to cradle it.

Cradle it


Because this is you.

Ever sense i was a spark in her womb you've been faning the flames.
You've held me tight between you both, carful that i don't blow out
You've given me the nutrients i needed to bun high
But then when i grow one way you fanned me the other way.
Away from things you see as wrong,
Unfit.
Rude.
A waist of time.
While holding me tight you somwere along the way frogot to let go.
Do you not understand i can not grow under this pressure?
do u not see me being smuthered?
So now it is to late.
I am dying.
While my light is bright it is small and will not last.
You Can not go back and fan any spark into me now.
Now i pray for death.
That cold darkness.
Then you will let go.
Then you will forget my glow.
I would pray to be ash.
The kind that looks like ***** snow,
Floting.
So that i can join the soil, right under your feet.
So that wildflowers could grow through me.
The ones no one will pick
Or put in a vase.
So that you could not display them at my funeral

Stop to regret what you've had
Close your eyes and hold your breath,
Fix your heart and raise your head,
You got hit but you are not dead.
Because one day it will be late,
For those who drowned their soul in hate,
So when you go for your last drink, make yourself think, don't try to sink.

The words will not flow freely from me now,
Crushed by the weight of my world,
Things I have and have not done,  
Things I have to do...
Stop breath and wait for the flames to die down.
For the words to catch spark.

Swinging in a pale motion
Flying back and forth mellow, in motion
Booming with each, every foot step

Each moment I awake to your presence
Pang!
The wind picks me up
Bang!
Sweeping me forward
Every swing is in motion with chaos
with in the mellow confines of my strung out heart

A hallow spark
Waiting for a filling.
Maybe it's time to...
Gong!

A mind unable to think with the echoed ring
Bringing her to sleep
In a hallow wedge in the earth's crust.
Beginning to write about the beauty of bells, but became a little more thoughtful when I started to write.

First it's a spark
then it's a flame
then you ran away
to avoid the blaze
Caitlin Apr 2016
I think that there will be some people you never lose feelings for.
Not completely anyway.
Regardless of the circumstances, that spark remains year after year.
Like one of those candles that reforms from the melted wax.
Always ready to be relight-
just waiting to see if that spark burns bright enough again to warrant a second chance.

I tried my best to rekindle our fire;
You just watered down all my attempts.


All efforts were futile.
