It may seem like our fire has been a little  burnt out
It may seem like we haven't been the same in awhile
Just tribulation & trail
No longer get those sweet text
About how you feeling me
Do­esn't change the fact you're my queen
To be
Our world maybe upside down
But all we gotta do is stick aroun­d
Because after the night comes day  After work comes play
If we give it our all
When we take this leap 
We'll survive the fall 
My end all be al­l 
My dearest woman of mine 
The x and o on my valentine 
There is no place in the world id rather be
Then next to thee
In just a matter of time sparks
Will fly
We'll soar into the sky
And let the wind take us where ever
No matter how harsh the weather
We'll get thru it as long as we are together

The feel inspires
to break the shackles
and venture beyond
no limits here
dangerous pursuits
with every touch
sparks fly
from burning embers
staring down  
game’s about to begin
no holds barred
essence of magic
in the heart
unadulterated fun
Lady Bird Jan 2015
no lit light bulb
or wowing spark
has hit me yet!
I've opened every
phone line and every
book or magazine
I could find
they use to bulge with my
dreams & aspirations
today my eyes are down
and my ears are wired shut
I think I've loss my muse
will I remain uninspired?

I was totally doing the whole "Dear John" thing where I look at the big bright moon in the sky hoping to have you looking at it to. In all honesty, that's what everyone does. They turn their boring, unlucky, tragic love stories into a Nicholas Sparks book, or relate to one at least. That's what I have crippled down too. I'm so desperately in love with you that I will stare at this half moon on this dark winter night and hope and pray and beg to God that your staring at it too. The downfall of my own writing of my own Nicholas Sparks book is that you are with her. At this very moment while I am staring up at this vast, daring, dark sky...your with her. In love with this girl that I so wish was me. Even though the sky is so dark and gloomy there is one thing that I know will give me hope. That is the bright crescent shape star illuminating the sky. That's my hope. Every time I look at it I know there is a silver chance of us being us. That is all I need , and all I need is you. Your my moon.
In these bones

I travel

and I carry with me

the little sparks of life.

I unearth heat,

take in breath,

I love.

I want

to stay in this skin,

I want it to still be

magic

in the future.

I want you to erupt

out of me

and I want to know

the taste of the sea.

A burst of color,
it is the flower of fire
painted in such gold
that scatters across the seas
leaving memories of sparks.

Last night, I adventured up onto a mountain
Shady trees and familiar acquaintances who I like
Nobodies who enjoy crawling into cracks and crevices
Because the streets are unstimulating

We reach the edge of the world
Look down, must of been 2,000 feet
Kings and Queens
We owned the city, because we had their lights in our hands

That was a night I will relive
Over, and over, and over, and over
I feel alive, I feel aware when I am with you all
It doesn't matter if we had a past or not

You matter
And you made an impact
And you have an affect on my memories
And you made my night memorable

We rule
Because we think we rule
And that is all that matters
All that matters is what you think of yourself
Ariana Sweeney Sep 2014
Use of heat
engulfs your ends
Into a splintered crisp.
Every inch you sear
Irons out the curls in your mane.

Flick the lighter,
Spark up some magic
And bring that
Shy, crying ember
To your dry lips.
The harder you inhale,
The faster you burn.

Smoke sneaks around
Your body and
Encapsulates you in
A hazy plume.
The scorch marks on your arm
Emphasizes your need
For warmth.

You seem to think you’re
A phoenix by how often
You play with flames,
But how high will you rise?

Will the ashes you’ve left
behind provide you with
a rebirth
or purge you into
the hearth forever?

How long will your eyes
Stay ignited,
Because every time you
Play with snowflakes,
You become a dimly lit,
Sputtering flicker.
Elements are a reoccurring theme in my life, according to my poetry as of late.
We were,
A treat to the eyes
A myth to their lies
The silver lining of innocence
In the end of a viscious tie

We were as painfully beautiful
As the sparks that fly out of two frictional objects
Wearing and tearing the edges apart
And yet, the little fireworks show attract audience

People really do love to observe destruction
First slowly yet steadily and then,
          All at once
It's not just roses that look beautiful and yet cause pain with their thorns are touched
Everytime we touched,
I felt a spark.
Eventually it grew to a flame
That destroyed me slowly.
Sparks ignite into flames, good or bad.
