I’m not everything you could ask for
But I want to try to be most of it
Is there nothing left for you here?
I thought I could help you out

Why did you leave me in this blood?
Why did you leave me alone here?
Can I keep you from crying out in pain?
I want to win the game you want to play
I want to paint you a picture
Of everything that amounts to your heart

Is there anything I can do?
I wish you were listening to everything
I want you to hear me
I’m scared of the things you might find
I don’t want to keep secrets
I don’t want you to keep your distance

I can’t keep living like this
You took my spark
The first time I laid eyes on your pretty face
You laughed and said “bye”
The last time I ever got to talk to you
And it needs to be real again
This broke me apart
Now I can’t find a new fire
The spark is gone

God please let her find out who I am
Let me have it back so I can talk to that pretty girl
I wish life wasn’t so unfair
Then I could find you and leave you a card or note

I found I could relate to your poem a lot.  That yearning, that  
paralyzed feeling of helplessness.  

Its nice to know someone else can feel that way.
I really enjoyed it.

It was a little wordy, but I liked ur overall emotion. The word "spark" caught my eye (maybe cuz it was in the title...), but I liked it for some reason.

You might want to condense ur words, just a suggestion. :]

There is power in the pen.

It's nice, but the over abundance of words throws people off I think. It did me.

I'd have to agree with the rest on here. A little too wordy but not too bad.

When I see your smile, and I know it’s not for me, that’s when I’ll miss you.
