What is something others do that sparks your admiration?

I can’t help but admire

All the times you told me

Your heart was on fire

Before the funeral pyre

That left our love smoldering

Like embers when December

Rolled around

—

You said I lit the spark

That split your soul

That made you whole

That left its mark

How was I to know

Mine was just another

On the wall

In your hall of flame

—

All the same I admire

The way you let me in

And let me down

I’d let it all begin again

Rather play the clown

Even if I don’t win
