The sparkle that i never even noticed
Till its not longer there
I scrolled through old albums
I tell myself in place of it comes wisdom
But who am i kidding
I'm as lost as i was then
There are bigger problems in the world
I know
But allow me for a minute
To wallow in self pity
Because i am an adorer
Of all things pretty
But in that moment of self pity
And exhaustion
And lack of motivation
A sparkle glimmers
In the corner of my eye
I turn and look
And there the sparkle lies
In the beautiful eyes
Of two little girls
And a little boy :)
