Spark
This is the spark
that ignites
everything
between us
So small a thing
meant to grow
when conditions are right
and hearts are prepared
to blaze, to burn
Like kisses that travel
from throat, to cheek
to lips
This is the spark
waiting to find
suitable tinder
This is our love
waiting to be more
This is the promise
of a fire
burning between two hearts
that started with a spark
small enough to be
a reflection
of sunlight
in your eyes
