Opposites don’t attract.

We were both love. I was a rose and you were a snowflake. Both beautiful and gentle but unable to coexist effectively because flowers can’t blossom in the cold.
Yet when it ended, the truth became misconstrued.
Suddenly I was a thorn that pricked you till you bled.
And you were frostbite that nipped away at my skin.
We created false portrayals of each other to make this all a bit easier to deal with.
But the truth will always stay.
We were both beauty, purity, fragility, love.
We just weren’t meant to give our love to each other.
And now we both bleed, because the hardest part is accepting we were never meant to be.

You are like the night sky
You are dark and scary and hold secrets that humanity must never know
People will glance and see such beauty,
People will stare and question everything at the sight of you
They will question why they even matter anymore if such beauty can exist with them not needed
You hold answers to questions we cannot even think of
and questions that we are too afraid to ask
You give us questions of why does anything even have meaning anymore?
Meaning means nothing in the presence of you
It will take great thinkers millennia to be able to describe and define you
Yet you can not be defined still- you are an enigma after years of trying to understand
You cannot be understood
You are an infinity of terror
Pure
Undefined
Misconstrued
Magnificent
TERROR

Also your eyes sparkles like the stars or something along those lines.

I stumbled upon you
Like a child
that finds a pretty stone
Bewildered by your presence
I sat and admired
Counting your cracks
Caressing what makes you glitter
You stood infront of me
Bold and beautiful
Like nothing I'd ever seen
And as you gave me your attention
I think I misconstrued your intentions
I wanted to put you in my pocket
But you said no
So there you sit
Perfectly unpolished
A love
I can only visit
Like a child

Bewildered by your presence

Counting your cracks
Caressing what makes you glitter
You stood infront of me
Bold and beautiful
Like nothing I'd ever seen
And as you gave me your attention
I think I misconstrued your intentions
I wanted to put you in my pocket
But you said no
So there you sit
Perfectly unpolished
A love
