there was a spark in the dust
amidst the cacophony
a spark kept close to the chest
in a life lived in the peripheral
in a life lost to the wind that whispered
“…not for you…” still
she had names for may be
Echo Lynn, Skye Marie, Gideon Robert
there was a spark in the dust
she never shared, alone in
a marriage of one
“…no ever taught me to be on my own…” ~ One More Night, Tom Perty
