You:
The striking sunset
That I always try to chase.

The overwhelming ocean's deepest trench
That I swim so hard to reach.

The countless constellations in the sky
That I strive so hard to figure out.

You:
Are the sunset,
Are the bottom of the ocean,
Are the constellations--
Insurmountable beauty,
Immeasurable vastness,
But quite frankly,
Unreachable.

So darling,
Forgive me for trying so hard to reach you,
For forcing something that isn't there.
I think I'll just stay here.
I'll get used to adoring you from afar.
I'll be contented with the fact that I can never reach you in this lifetime.
For there's still some beauty
In cherishing you from a distance.

You don’t love me
You finally said so
After all this time
After all these years
After all the breakups
After all the comebacks
After all the smiles
After all the laughs
After all the ***
After all the pain
After all the trips
After all the money
After all
After all the love;

You didn’t.
