Your eyes were beyond ordinary understanding,
Colored of earth,
pulling me into the deepest of seas.
I stopped thinking about myself,
drowning in hopes of pleasing you,
but forgot that I needed to breathe.
Focused on your kisses,
blurred out your past,
and felt your whispers against my skin.
You spoke senselessly,
and exhausted me with your words.
I stopped looking into your eyes,
so you wouldn't know that I was breaking.
I wiped away my tears,
as you blamed me for your mistakes.
You were the deepest of oceans,
holding me without escape.
You were my home,
where I could be my most authentic self.
You are no longer my sunrise,
my sunset,
you are nothing but perfect darkness.
You were an illusion,
more beautiful than you ever were.
