The Fire Is Out

The fire is out

The room is cold

There are no windows

No light to see

Just what had become of you and me

I search for embers

There is only ash

No water needed

The fire is out

This room is cold

Too cold to stay

I need a way out

I have to leave ~ today

I can not stand to be here any more

The warmth that was once here

Is now no more

No place to rebuild a fire

No windows to bring in some light

It's an empty room

It's an empty life

I leave the room and close the door

It disappears

Another room ~ lost

Another fire ~ gone

Life is about moving forward

Moving on

Another door will open soon

Another fire ~ in another room

There is no looking back

No bad thoughts to have

Just lost memories

How sad

A light will shine

A fire will burn

Life will bloom

Love ~ will find a way.

It Begins With A Spark

It begins with a spark

Ignites into a flame

It charges through your chest

It fills your lungs

Every breath you take burns within your throat

Your eyes water

Your head spins

Your legs are too heavy to move

You reach out...

Hoping to touch something

Hoping to feel something

Needing to hold anything for support

The tips of your fingers reach out a little farther

It's difficult to see through the fog

And then...

Something is there

Something to give you hope that not all is lost

There it is, almost out of reach, but still there

With one last belief in your own heart, you take that leap of faith

And hold onto the one thing you believe can save you.

You leap forward~

~Towards

Love!

Just a glimpse

The memories of you dance within my mind.

Happier days, happier times.

A quick glance, a playful smile.

Hoping you would stay awhile.

How sad to know it wasn't true.

How sad to find I was nothing to you.

I am not angry

I am not mad

I'm just here thinking

How sad

A dream with so much promise

Has dwindled down to this

Just a glimpse of what was

Now fading in the mist
