'Your Spark' (part two)

This piece is Part 2 of 2 parts representing two immensely powerful & opposing human emotions. The chosen emotion for Part 2 is Sadness & is expressed in a less structured poetry style of verse. The following poem is called ‘Your Spark’. Collectively the parts are written to illustrate the conflict & the calm that exists between the emotions.

‘Your Spark’

I wonder if an inspirational, magical spark

of positive light will ever be found dwelling

within the dark shadows of your depression,

where no tangible outcome seems to exist

Surely a life changing spark could be generated

by the collision of a negative mind and ego

with the countless yet to be fulfilled possibilities

and simplistic hopes of life’s reality

Although “I Wish” offers an alternative perspective,

perhaps it may seem devoid of reliability, when uttered by others;

But I honestly wish; that you appreciated

the unconditional value of our friendship

I truly wish; that you could stop blaming

others for your insecurity and feelings of failure

I really wish; that you could openly see the whole effect

of your negativity and sadness on this world

more so, through the eyes of those who love you

And lastly I just wish; that one day soon you will

have the courage and strength to look within your heart

and simply make a wish, for it will help you

to find your life’s spark once more

Then perhaps you would always know,

believe and understand how much wonderment,

light and happiness can be found within a simple spark,

when a genuine wish comes true
