Love, a Mythology
Once upon a time,
a long time ago,
a story began
on a land unknown.
Before the light and the dark
began to fight,
before there was the day
and before there was night,
before there just was
and wasn't a world,
there lived a spark,
who did nothing but twirl.
He had no future,
he had no past.
He simply just was,
and that was that.
But this poor little spark,
all alone in nothing,
began to think
he was missing something.
But try as he might,
he just didn't know,
what he was missing
and which way to go.
The little spark tried and tried as he might,
not even realizing he was creating a light.
This little light grew until suddenly,
the spark, for the first time,
could truly see.
All that was around him
and near him
and close,
yet all this was nothing,
but he didn't know.
His light had created
the colors we know,
like rainbows around him,
the space seemed to glow.
He liked this a lot,
but it wasn't enough,
cause the spark didn't know,
he was looking for love.
We all need companions,
there's no question of truth,
but what of the spark,
who had nothing
to gain or to lose?
He tried really hard,
to give the light a form,
but try as he might,
it was nothing but warm.
Til suddenly the spark
figured it out,
and knew without question,
and had no doubt.
He was trying all wrong,
to create a love,
not loving what he had,
and what he was void of.
The little sparked loved
the light like he should,
until a time came the light seemed to grow.
The spark was surprised,
when what should he see,
but another little spark,
glowing bright with glee.
These two little sparks
embraced without end,
vowing never ever to be lonely again.
The sparks kept getting bigger,
as love grew and grew,
until suddenly
boom,
they made something new.
The world was so perfect,
they really were sure,
so many sparks,
and love so pure.
The sparks turned solid,
and the love grew hotter,
and as the world began filling,
they gave birth to a daughter.
No not a son,
he didn't come first,
it was a girl
destined to be
the mother of the Earth.
This mother was born
of pure and true love,
and that's all she wants
from somewhere above.
She wants us to know,
her parents tale,
of how nothing became something,
and lifted the veil.
In everyone one of us
resides a spark,
waiting in patience til love comes along,
freeing it from its lonely existence,
waiting for color to pay a visit.
So never give up
til your spark is a fire,
and always know love
shines brighter and brighter.
