Dear Starboy
A Fallen Star and a Wilted Flower
Dear Starboy,
I didn't want half of your love,
I wanted all of it.
I was not being selfish,
no, I was being fair.
If you did loved me as much as you say you did,
Why would you have run away with the moon and the stars?
I would've run away with you,
For I have dreams too...
I always knew what kind of person I was sharing my heart with.
You were my star and I was your flower.
You, shining and mesmerized by all,
Me, loved for a short time,
cut and wilted later.
I'm sorry if I expected too much of you.
I never meant for you to burn out.
I only wanted what I needed most.
Love.
You could never see what was happening.
I alone could see what was yet to come.
I saw your beauty grow weak,
I saw your prideful heart,
I saw the arrogance grow,
I saw you change,
I felt your pain,
But you never felt mine.
I'm sorry I wasn't enough for you,
I'm sorry I couldn't give you what you needed,
I'm sorry you never saw the help you had,
I'm sorry I could never be a part of you again.
I am sorry.
All stars burn out,
All flowers wilt,
But continue to grow more with care.
Wish you could see me now,
I am alive,
I now thrive.
You are silent.
Cold, dead amongst the constellations.
All we needed was love.
I took mine all back.

Hi there reader! Welcome to my page! Most of my postings will be based on my life, I guess in a way it can be viewed as a blog. I will also post many of my poems and short stories. Fyi, I am a health nut so recipes will be shared! Enjoy :)
