Your beauty radiates like the sun, but unlike the sun, your beauty will never die. Unlike death your beauty will last forever and touch everyone in its path.
I tried with my first poem

There’s nothing left for me here, and there never will be

I fell in love once, but now that time has passed

I never got to tell him why

I dared to hurt him

I wonder if he knows

The way I feel, the way I cry

I wonder if he knows

The way I think about him, the way I act

I wonder why I even try

Does he know this misery

that he has met before

Will I ever get the chance to prove

that I won’t hurt him anymore

There’s nothing left for me, just sadness, growing old

I miss the time when it was us,

Don’t you?

But I guess it’s for the best that we aren’t together,

Even though I love you more than anyone would ever,

But I guess this is the way it’s going to be
Say goodbye to him for me.

I wanted to
kiss the
bundles of stars
in your face

I wanted to
smooth the
rough edges of your
skin
weaved with mine
so full of
hidden pain
and
boyish innocence

I wanted to
melt into your
warm white walls

I didn't want to leave you

the heavens watched us
while we slept
in those cold
January nights

angels
full of
envy
above us

I suppose they
wanted you
to become
a fleeting blotch
of red
in my heart

I suppose
the whispers of
fate
decided to
change us

I didn't want to leave you

I always tasted the
sweetness
of your skin
as if for the last time

with gentle fingers
and sleepy eyes
we fell in love

I always tangled the
stars in your hair
I always kissed
the scars on your hands

as if I knew
we were going to
die

the angels have
you
now

the man I loved

and I have
sorrow
and
one million pictures of you

lodged in my chest
Just random

— The End —
