A Spark

He followed me home
I walked in silence
And listened to his awkward reveries
Who would've known
That those idle evenings would become a pastime
My favorite routine

When the days grew longer
We cut through the park
Made friends with mosquitoes
Til fireflies lit up the dark
I didn't know much of love but I felt a spark

Almost eighteen
Caught in the moment
Learning how to lose all sense of time
Felt like a dream
All that I wanted in the palm of his hand
And his hand in mine

But the nights grew colder
And his tongue turned sharp
Farewell to the summer
Hello to my first broken heart
We didn't know it was love but we lost the spark

When I look back now
There isn't a doubt

We were young and crazy
Brilliant but not smart
I don't hate or regret him
I just keep him in the corner of my heart
I let go of my love
But I kept a spark
