(246)▪︎[ The Spark … 3•9•2020 ]

[ When The Sun Goes Down & The Moon Comes Out ]
[ What Do You Think About? ]

[ Do You Reminisce About How The Day Went? ]
[ & How You Were Able To Call Your Partner & Vent? ]

[ Did They Listen With Open Ears? ]
[ Or Did It Seem Like You Were Talking About Subjects
That They Didn’t Want Hear? ]
[ Did It Seem Really Clear? ]
[ That They Didn’t Want To Listen Here? ]

[ Were The Problems Solved? ]
[ Was Your Partner Involved? ]

[ If So, How Much? ]
[ Did They Always Try To Avoid Talking About Such & Such? ]

[ How True Were These Last Lines? ]
[ Do You Think Your Relationship Is Still Doing Fine? ]

[ Sometimes They Come Across Aloof & Vacant ]
[ You Want Them To Stay 10 More Minutes ]
[ But They Quickly Say ( I CAN’t ) ]

[ You Wonder Where It All Went Wrong? ]
[ Your Talks Used To Be Deep & Long ]

[ Now You Don’t Know What’s Going On ]
[ Are You Thinking That The Spark Is Gone? ]

[ Did It Blow Out Long Ago? ]
[ Or Didn’t You See It ]
[ Because The Regression Was So Slow? ]

[ So How Do You Make A Spark That Starts A Flame? ]
[ First Thing You Do Is Stop The Blame ]
[ Game ]

[ That Does Not Help Each Other ]
[ To Stay Together ]
[ It Doesn’t Help Trying To Be Their Father Or Mother ]

[ You Must Let Them Be Themselves ]
[ & Don’t Try To Make Them Like Someone Else ]

[ Like Someone From Your Past ]
[ Since You Are Not Still With That Person ]
[ Obviously That Relationship Did Not Last ]

[ But Everyone Has Advice That You Don’t Have To Take ]
[ & Sometimes Some People Come Across Aloof & Fake ]

[ Can You Do Anything About That? ]
[ Maybe The Next Time That You Come Up To Bat ]
[ You Can Wipe Your Shoes Off @ The Doormat ]
[ That’s Better Than Wiping Them Off On Somebody’s Back ]

[ You Have To Stop The Hurt ]
[ & Give Him Back His Shirt ]
[ But You Could Wash It First ]

L[ Life Is Short, Make It Sweet ]
[ When Things Are Good ]
[ It Can’t Be Beat ]

[ So Let’s Put This In Drive ]
[ Instead Of Keeping It In Park ]
[ To See If This Is Worth Bringing It Into The Light ]
[ Out Of The Dark ]

[ What Needs To Be Done ]
[ To Make This All Work? ]
[ Let’s Make Life Fun ]
[ So Nobody Gets Hurt ]

[ I’ll See Things Your Way ]
[ If You Could Also Consider Mine ]
[ Let’s Make Every Day ]
[ Fulfilling & Kind ]

[ I Remember Sitting On Your Sofa Laughing & Talking
Into The Wee Hours ]
[ The Sun Would Come Up ]
[ & We Would Listen To The Rain & Watch The Showers ]

[ That Doesn’t Seem To End ]
[ We Know We Need To Get Up & Start The Day ]
[ But We Just Don’t Want To Know When ]

[ I Just Decide To Get Up To Leave ]
[ But You Catch Me @ The Door ]
[ Then Say ( DON’t GO, PLEASE ) ]

[ I Go Back To Sit On The Couch, Next To You ]
[ I Peer Into Your Eyes ]
[ & Look For A Clue ]

[ I Can’t Help But Say ( WOW! ) ]
[ & That Makes You Blush & Smile ]
[ Then You Ask ( OKAY, WHAT NOW? ) ]
