Unsure of Sparks

Ever just had that spark with someone... Ever wanted to see what it would become...

I’m a spark
And you need a fire.
You’re stuck in park
But my light will make you higher
Than you were before.
Than you’ve been by far.
Than you ever will be
With anyone.

Start with a spark
It’ll grow into a fire.
Don’t sell the logs
To the highest paying buyer.
I’ve got heart
And whole lot of it.
And I’ve got dark.
Enough to get you lost
And make you switch directions.

You’re on the path.
It’ll keep you safe.
I say no to that.
Take a little more dangerous way.
If you can’t take the dark.
Remember that spark.
Breathe a breath on that light
And it can keep us warm all through the night.
This little spark can burn bright.
I want to see you doing better than all right.

Start with a spark
It’ll grow into a fire.
Don’t sell the logs
To the highest paying buyer.
I’ve got heart
And whole lot of it.
And I’ve got dark.
Enough to get you lost
And make you switch directions.

We’ve always had that little piece of heaven when we touched.
I’ve always had those little jokes and words that you loved.
We’ve always had that way together that made everyone jealous.
You’ve always had that way about you that always made me nervous.

Remember that you can
Start with a spark.
It’ll grow into a fire.
Don’t sell the logs
To the highest paying buyer.
I’ve got heart
And whole lot of it.
And I’ve got dark.
Enough to get you lost
And make you want to switch directions.

I'm a spark
And you need a fire.
beautiful...how tender and anxious young love can be! your poem is infused with white hot passion and a blinding coating of bliss that takes one to a place where they can truly understand the meaning of love.
and yeah, danger and turmoil is ongoing, and if it weren't...would the one night high even be worth it?
I'm a spark, and you need a fire...

Hmm, interesting....

The writer broils with the turbulent passion of life and wants to share his roiling enthusiasm with another whom he feels is missing out by being hunkered down in their attitude.

He offers a little adventure but within the safety of the spark should it be needed.
I like it. I like the chance of the risk, the pure dare of it all but to have the gentlemanly hand of protection
just a little hidden in the background should things get a little hairy....is sweet beyond words.

I like that the writer is mysterious about what is on offer with just enough detail so that the reader can draw their own conclusions depending on their bent....but whatever it is, he wants her to go to her limit....which neither of them know....till they try....then he will rescue her.

Wow, who wouldn't want that !!

Now this is as close to home as any I seen.. Reality at its best...

nice. i really enjoyed reading this.
the first stanza is my favorite.

"I'm a spark and you need a fire...."
if only love was as easy and simple as this line.

good job.

Thia really sweet and cute! This is kinda of like saying I will always be there for there for you and I will protect you going for the literal meaning of fire.
" Remember that spark.
Breathe a breath on that light
And it can keep us warm all through the night.
This little spark can burn bright.
I want to see you doing better than all right."

I like how these all consectutively rhyme and the message behind it. Wonderful!

Wow.. who hasn't felt that.. it's whether the fire will grow together and not incinerate both to ashes! I loved this flow, rhythm and rhyme.. the message is one of hope but not by any means sounds like the safe road.. it's the realistic one.. everything in life involves a little risk .. taking chances.. trusting.. which can be hard for some. If this was written to someone.. hopefully they hear your words.. in reality this type of love does make people jealous.. this song even makes me a little jealous ..for that lucky muse! Thank you for sharing! =)
