I deserve love
I deserved it
but I never
not for a second
deserved you.
Maybe, beyond those mixed-up words
and awkwardness, our unease
I - you might understand
you might be able to see
what I feel.
I break whenever someone else
is the centre of your world.
But what did I think?
Was I really that foolish?
Would the world, the entirety,
the universe, wholly
ever fall for a star?
One that no longer shines,
yet yearns to be as bright as it's love;
a damned demon who fell
for a beautiful angel
Everytime they tried to give life as their lover did
they only destroyed
and burned
corrupted and ruined.
The world lost its colour
the stars their light
and the fire its warmth
the day its night.
And we sit
amongst broken shards
with broken souls.
I try to save
hidden from your view -
a filter
You see the love of others; only
the things they give
what did I think?
Would I ever stand a chance
with you?
