Alone

Your eyes are a sunset,

Mine are the night.

Your hair is a straight, blonde, beautiful one,

Mine is a curly, brown, hideous one.


You have him

The guy that used to be mine

The guy that everyone likes

The guy that left me.


You have them

The friends that used to be mine

The friends that everybody wishes for

The friends that left me.


You have her

The best friend that used to be mine,

The best friend that was only mine

The best friend that left me


You have everyone

I wish I was like you

I wish I was you.

You are a star.

You are the day.

You are perfect.

I am the moon.

I am the night.

I am imperfect.


Now my hope is gone

And I’m left here

Alone.

I adore your refrains. I understood every part of the poem, and once again, AMAZING :)
