English "To let a fool kiss you is stupid; to let a kiss fool you is worse." / —Anonymous
I am a Cubic Zirconia. On the outside, seemingly polished and sparkling. But beneath the surface, flawed and jaded. You saw me, thought me a Diamond in the rough. You thought you could fix me. I thought you could too. We were both wrong. And now here I am, worse than before, And missing you terribly.

I am a Cubic Zirconia
You left my life as quickly as you came into it. Fell out of the sky, and into my lap, quite literally! Never before have I wanted time to stand still, as much as I did then. And as the doors slid shut and you glided away into non-existence, I sorely wish I'd gotten your number.

I'm happy for you, But I can't say I'm not envious. I want to feel what you're feeling; that rush of emotions so fast you can't identify just one happiness, excitemnt, anxiety and fear all blurred together into an indescribable shape I'd give anything for what you have

Because now I'm confused. Are these subtle hints? or works of fiction; created by my own mind, to fool myself into thinking I'd ever have a chance with you?

Do You?
I give so much, yet get barely anything in return.

I've realised, I was wrong. There was more , to what I've been looking for this whole time. I don't need passion. I need love. I need you

A Revelation
Faced with the fear of death, Permanent extinction. I know its preposterous, But the mind wanders. I risk a glance Over my shoulder, Seeing every mistake, All the terrible things I've done. But I also see the good things, The tiny, shining moments of joy, That make everything worth it. If I were to die now, I'm glad that I can say I have no regrets.

But I feel fine...
I think that this is it. I'm on my way to who I want to be. I've gotten used to the darkness. Befriended it, almost. It's going to be around for a little while longer. For the first time in ages, There's a light at the end of the tunnel.
