Spark
June 4, 2024
She just wants to change lives.
but I haven’t seen the fire in her eyes for a little while,
that spark when she knows she helped someone.
the men who only want to get themselves ahead are burning her out.
She just wants to change lives.
i know sometimes she feels alone, the only one who will ever care.
i know someday that fire will come back, and she will feel no more despair.
She just wants to change lives.
