Every heart is a spark
Some brighter than others
Some more evident than others
There are some sparks that can't be locked in a cage
no matter how thick the steel bars become.
Other sparks can easily be put out with water
only to shine brighter than ever before.
There are sparks in shadows and sparks in sunshine
There are sparks stuck in oceans of mud
but still act like stars
Many sparks wear a mask,
a mask that releases a fake glow, so that they will never vanish in front of others.
Few sparks think beyond their limit and try to become the moon.
Therefore they fly towards the moon
even though most are put out by rain,
All sparks are players in a game,
a game of chess powered by their own greedy thirst for a stronger, sweeter shine.
