Clever Spark

We all leave a mark
A semblance of our spark
Each action we take
Can become another’s mistake.

Steps of great joy
Turn love, to toy
No love’s remorse
Creates reason to change course

Each step I drop
Drop a piece of me
Now I can’t stop
Stop and just be

The others who can see
See what I left
The others who are free
Free till they are theft

Robbed of their glee
Glee loses its value
Robbed of their rage
Rage fades from you

We all leave a mark
Some semblance of a spark
Each action we take
Can become another’s mistake

Steps of great joy
Turns love, to toy
No lover’s remorse
Creates reason of discourse

Now without voice
Voice of logic, reason
Now without choice
Choice of right, or treason

Where’s the lost
Lost where I belong
Where’s the cost
Cost paid by wrong

Trapped in the heart beat
Beating, bleeding fame
Trapped in the heat
Heat of regret’s flame

We all leave a mark
A semblance of a spark
Each action we take
Can become another’s mistake

Steps of great woe
Turns love from high to low
No love’s hate
No reason to appreciate

I’m nearing the end
End of my passion
I’m nearing a friend
Friend far from satisfaction

Together on to final quest
Quest for final pain
Together onto unending rest
Rest forever in-vain

Paying an unknown crime
Crime against they soul
Paying in unknown time
Time to pay the toll

We all leave a mark
Left by our dead spark
For each action we fake
We lose our sake

Steps of resonating failure
Last longer than things secure
No loves last forever
Only things that are clever
