I didn't say no, but my silence
Didn't say yes.

I looked at you
as if you had put the stars in the sky
You noticed me, too
I was your complex galaxy
The moon looked down on us two
and was saddened by the tragedy
We were supernovas
shining brightest after our end

But our beauty didn't make up for the explosion that  shattered me.

I want to hike up a mountain
and shout til my lungs hurt
yell out all the pain that
cripples my heart
so I’m reminded that
hearts aren’t made whole
just to be broken

I want to swim to the ocean
dive to the depths of it
till I’m surrounded in blue darkness
and look up to see the light
swiveling through the currents
only so I can feel what it’s like
to want to breathe again

I want to jump off a building
and feel the wind washing my face
and drying the tears that stream down it
just to know that there is still something
that would care enough to wipe away
the physical demonstration
of pain

You look at me
as if the stars were my eyes
as if my very hands
had sculpted the moon
When I walk in the room
I notice your eyes roaming it in
search for my feeble body
You look through me
and see universes trapped inside
My tears are diamonds to you
Too precious to be wasted

You look at me as if I were everything
when to myself I am nothing

Thank you for showing me someone can love me
even when I do not love myself
