You have made it.
You’ve just made your self invincible.
The fact that you own this heart of mine
Rendered me vulnerable:
The freeze of your smile,
The death in your goodbye,
The craze I felt I almost wanted,
So here I am,
A soul stuck in a sleepless state,
Writing poems just to forget
What they really were about,
For longing, yet again, is disallowed
Because you got your eyes fixed
In the opposite direction
That I can hardly see your face, your stars,
The blaze of stars.
Now let me wait, at least, stay,
So that I may be able
To understand why...
Why of all
The constellations to choose from
I chose the farthest, the one
Most difficult to reach,
Then slowly, just maybe,
I’ll forget the glow...
...that you possess.*
