Horrified by my reflection:
A cynical, disillusioned idealist
Horrified,
Indifferent
You were a
Silly boy
Spouting nonsense of hope and humanity
Silly Boy
Your sun-kissed caramel eyes cannot move me
I am stone
Your goofy grin cannot give me hope
I am empty
Your eruptive, childish laugh will not change me
Stunned
It echoes through my being,
Infectious
This smile is easy
Chocolate brown orbs meet honey-hued ones
Hopelessness meets hope
Tarnished meets pure
Silly Boy
Your better tomorrow doesn't seem so "silly" anymore
For, if the world has produced such beauty in you
Surely, it cannot be so bad
For, if there exists a beauty that can melt this frozen heart,
Surely, there must be hope
Gosh, I wrote this ages ago (2010). This boy meant a lot to me and he was so special. To this day, I have never been able to find someone with even remotely as beautiful soul as his.
