Spark?
So my best friends texts me today Let’s me know her brother called To tell her he is getting a divorce. “There has been a lot of hurt,” She says “They haven’t been lovey in a long time.” “There is like, no spark.” What is this spark everyone speaks of? It is so detrimental And so elemental To human necessity. What lights it? The fire of connection? Or flame of passion? Is it something we acquire Then gingerly hold In fear of the day it just fades out? Is it a force to be acquired? To be respected Or does it need to be feed Does it require constant work Or Does it depend On who is holding Onto the other end of the wick?
