The First Ever Spark
On stage
Is where he is
Singing with passion
And deepness
My eyes widen
My heart pumps
My veins rush
My mind dreams
Someone like him
I can relate to
A feeling rises
Inside my chest
A ball
Of warmth
It catches my breath
My body stiff
What is this?
It is unnatural
I have never
Felt this before
My hands clutch
At the warmth’s spot
My mind
Confused
Is this what they call a spark?
But why should I feel this
After just knowing him
For only a little while?
Soon I learn
He is taken
By another flame
My heart saddens
I knew this would come
Single forever
That is who I am
But my heart still pulses
For him
And I try to destroy it
But it will not give in
His face
I see
The spark burns
With my tears falling
But I swish the tears away
And turn away
As I know
I must fight this
I thought my heart had learned
Its lessons
I thought my heart
Was done with this endless hope
I thought my heart knew that
True love is not real,
Love at first sight is not real,
Dream men are not real,
And soul-mates are not real
But my heart still hopes
And pulses for him
This first ever firework
This first ever spark
