I always thought of her as rather ravishing.
She was a sunken star, barely visible in the night sky.
But, I had a telescope.
She had eyes that were as green as mother nature herself.
Her hair- Oh how I admired it- was a silk dress you wear to bed. A bed in which is where I would one day like to be with her.
A crush, a lost, a dream.

 

My darling, If i could bare the sight.
You in the arms of another woman.
You two were dancing in the rendezvous till the clock chimed twelve.


A princess story without a Princess now.
Your star has dimmed.
Your green has gone brown.
Your silk has been stained.
and your bed should be in the ground.

 

A awful thing has taken place.
Your other love has shown their face.
Now if i can change your fate
A raging divorcee filled with hate
I have finally closed our final gate

 

A crush
A love
A dream


The author's comments:

I wrote this piece in a reading group me and my friends have, we were told to write a tragic story. I remembered the time that my friend has been cheated on and used it for inspiration. It is supposed to send the message of always love as much as you can, like in the first stanza, intill you can't love anymore, like inn the fourth stanza.

 

Its a modern take on a love story gone wrong
