That rare individual

Spark that lights the fire

It's rare to find that individual
Who makes you feel less invisible
That connects with your soul
Pulling you out of your self made hole

The twinkle in their eyes ignites a spark
The bullseye has hit its mark
The train of feelings has begun
A bleak life now seems more fun.

Where there was once pain
They took it away by linking the chain
The burden and weight of sadness
Drowned by my new found happiness

I was alone and so desolate
Who knew all I had to do was wait
A special person was heading my way
They wouldn't leave, only stay.

Also looking for their missing part
To make whole the heart
Last piece of the puzzle
The end of the tunnel

The first verse I have to set say was the stand out line for me. I could easily relate to it and remember when how I met the love of my life and how she made me feel.

As you say 'The twinkle in their eyes ignite that spark' - NEVER has a truer word been spoken and this again hit home with me.

I loved this piece and thank you for sharing.

Soulmates are amazing people. Love how you describe this in the poem.

[Lykos]

Yes they most certainly are. Thanks for the review.

The first stanza is so telling. Really great writing!

Thanks for the review.

There's real movement in your poem, meter is present but not forced into position because one could, can, should. There are such strong hints of the poet, whether true or not.. but the person is present, shows both vulnerability and determination.

Thanks for the review

after reading 'self made hole' I was hooked.
An unexpected line that made me interested because cliches bore me.
I also admire your ability rhyme things and keep your rawness and sincerity. Sometimes I find rhyming feels a bit forced but yours flowed naturally.

[Lykos]

I find it easier to write poems that rhyme than ones that don't. Thanks for your review
