a spark for you when the light dims

I've never seen your face      
but I feel your reflection in the mirror      
one fractured soul to another      
     
I want to say I've been you      
but I've only ever been me      
I just resonate so hard      
with the way you rip yourself open      
trying to find the spark inside      
and only finding pitch black organs    
that move to a beat      
that sounds like death      
though they're evidence      
that you're still so alive      
     
I want to say it gets better      
and it does      
just maybe never in the way      
we plan...
what I really mean is      
it gets different      
     
And some days that's enough      
different is better even though      
we might not feel elevated      
different is better because      
it's evidence that tomorrow      
won't be the same as yesterday      
and some time near      
a smile will reach our lips      
and it won't be fake      
it won't hurt      
     
It will fill your soul      
even if it's just for a moment      
     
And that moment...      
that moment is worth living for
