This poem explores the theme of a deep and intense connection with someone, symbolized by being too close to the stars. The narrator expresses their admiration and astonishment at encountering a person unlike anyone they have ever known. However, circumstances and fate intervene, leading to a heartbreaking separation and a longing for what once was. The narrator reflects on the pain of losing such a special person but acknowledges that it is better to lose them than to use them. The second part of the poem delves into the idea of selling one's soul for love and the subsequent realization that the relationship was not meant to be. The narrator sees their own reflection in the eyes of their beloved, symbolizing the deep emotional connection they once shared. They contemplate whether the separation is a hidden blessing, protecting them from further heartache. Nevertheless, they feel the weight of their sacrifice and mourn the loss of a love that was never truly theirs. Overall, the poem evokes a sense of melancholy, longing, and introspection in the face of lost love.
She is an outcast. She finds it easier to express what she feels in the form of writing. Whether it is poems, letters or long texts. These are poems that she writes trying to describe how it feels to live with certain mental health issues, in a world that disregards outcasts. So, these are on the darker side of the spectrum. Some poems might be distressing for some readers.

I really hope none of you relate with any of these :)
I'll be posting only poems here, I'll try to be as active as I can.
The poems are not in any order. They are just the thoughts that pop up any time of the day.
