Listen
I have returned
To tell you
My story
Listen
I have returned
To tell you
My story
She shone
Bright
In the endless blank sky
Burning gases in fury
Fury and loneliness
The brightest in the sky
‘Twas worshiped and adored
By beings she knew not
They thought she was all mighty and powerful
While the lone star believed
She was a speck in the dust
We painted skies, infinite
We painted oceans, deepest
We dreamed of love, unconditional
We dreamed of passion, unquenchable
Yet, again
We closed our eyes
Drifting to oblivion
The flower wilted
Still wanting
Still waiting for love
Dropping it’s last petal
When
The whole world conspires
To throw you
Away
And, instead
You end up
On top shining
All the way
The rejected masterpiece
In all it’s pride
Lies
Thrown away
Staring wide eyed
With dripping mockery
At the haters
Who fail the task
To lessen
It’s worth
I’m celebrating
Beauty
In all it’s hatred
Rejection
In all it’s sweetness
Betrayal
In all it’s glamour
Disgust
In all it’s reality
Mockery
In all it’s truthfulness
Pain
In all it’s endurance
Hurt
In all it’s passion
Darkness
In all it’s intensity
Yes
I am celebrating
In all
It was intense
Her love for
The reality
But little did she know
The reality
Was a big lie
It was pure poison
Highly concentrated
Deadly venomous
Running through her blood
Toxicating
But making her
Feel alive
Killing her
Back to the beginning
Back to rejection
Why does it still hurt?
It always was
It always has
