Rejection
He was all that I
needed
Stars perfectly
aligned
For a moment like
this
He was molded and
crafted
Like Michelangelo’s David
With fire in his
hair and
Gems in his eyes
An interior so
delicate and beautiful
Yet bold and
defensive
His child-like
spirit
Transfers me to
better days
He is all my dreams
Compressed as one
But in his eyes
I am fit as unworthy
The key to his
happiness
Far out of my reach
Unattractive and
withdrawn
Raises doubt in his
mind
He pulls away
From the grotesque
being
Standing before him
with sadness
The rejection is
painful
It tears down the
little hope
Locked within my
heart
My love evaporates,
never to return
