Love Poem: Fireworks

Fireworks

I changed my life today
let go of the worst - today
I became the man
I no longer thought I could be

The fireworks saved my sight
from grasps of an engulfing fright
a fight given to me
to escalate and let me fly away
a sight I’d seen
the other day to forget
what i’d given
three lonesome sparks
that tilted - my
way of thinking

I forgave what came before
and will always forgive
what I have now
take my hand and squeeze
‘till the blood comes dripping out
and I’ll show my love
the sparkles and glows

just like the fireworks
