You Were A Masterpiece.

This poem is about loving someone who was perfect on the outside, beautiful and consuming however it reaffirms that true beauty comes from within.

Everyday I pass your way, I look out to see your face and sometimes I wish you'd see mine,

For reasons unknown to me, I will always care for you. The love and lust have long since

Left my being however, I will never forget you. True to myself, I admit that I do miss you,

For my truth is mine alone to bear. I will always search for your face in the crowd as you

Were a monumental piece of my history, there's a part of me that is and always will be

Devoted to caring for you. I will miss you for as long as I live, unsure of how you feel, I am

Ambivalent for as I grow into my great success and prosperity, I cannot risk the liability of

Being blinded by you again although, you were a masterpiece painted like the velvet stars

Amidst the dark sky. Much like Vincent's Starry Night, you were mesmerizing yet,

Untouchable, for as I defied the natural order I was bound to fall into the dark abyss in

Search of the light, such is the punishment for a love forbidden. Alas such you were,

Beautiful, kept, consuming...

A Masterpiece.
