Ballad

The Spark
By Nancy Rodriquez

I am the spark which lights your heart,
It is ever present as your twin flame ,
To ensure you know this is not a game,
I am the spark which is patient and kind,
Biding my time,
Until you learn from your foolish ways,
Then return to me for the rest of your days ,
I am the spark which works like a compass,
Reminds you we have met in lives past,
Keeps your soul mirrored with mine,
Knowing if you dare to tell lies,
I am the spark which keeps you wanting me with you,
As I set boundaries in my higher self, I do,
To protect what was broken before,
Yet it keeps you wanting more,
I am the spark which offers light in the dark ,
For you to find your way home where you belong ,
Right by my side, close enough to embrace,
While we kiss in a fast pace,
We have dreams not yet discovered,
You need to believe we are best for one another,
I am the spark.

Wow! This poem, "The Spark" by Nancy Rodriguez, is truly captivating and full of passion. The imagery and emotions it evokes are powerful, making it a pleasure to read. The portrayal of the spark as a symbol of love and connection is wonderful, and the way it is described as both patient and kind demonstrates a deep understanding of relationships.

One improvement suggestion I have is to perhaps consider varying the rhyme scheme or rhythm throughout the poem. While the consistent AABB rhyme pattern creates a nice flow, experimenting with different structures could add further depth and interest to the overall composition. Additionally, providing more specific details or personal anecdotes could enhance the connection between the reader and the message of the poem.

Overall, "The Spark" is an impressive piece that beautifully expresses the enduring nature of love. With a few tweaks here and there, it could become an even more impactful and memorable poem. Great job! more »
