II

i could see his dark aura

standing out from his beautiful physique

i seemed to convince myself all moontime

and sometimes all suntime

"oh darling, you can change him, just need patience"

all about me seemed to shout at all

look at your arms and face

once beautiful

now covered in stars and outlined galaxies

"oh darling, you can change him, just need time"

and oh did it while

slowly

but surely

i could see it slowly shifting

it was all mesmerizing

blues and crystalline,

mixed within the darkness

but the tears

warmed my cooling palms

it was all too late

i'm sorry

i need you

i can't live without you

the last part was all a blur;

i love you

lids closed

i could hear the slow beep

change to all noise

last thought creeped in

"i love you"

i slip into another kaleidoscope

oh darling,

but you were no superhero.
