What I Deserve
You said, "He did so many things to hurt you, I don't understand how you can love him." And for once in my life, I had no words. My pen was stilled, the river of words that usually flow across my tongue ran dry. How could I explain it to you? How could I explain that I found it easier to love him as he hurt me. Like the cuts let the love in. And the bruises made me more sensitive to his touch. The bad times made the good times seem glorious. And that's something I'll never be able to explain to you, I can't even explain it to myself. But one of my favorite authors summed it up perfectly "we accept the love we think we deserve." And I'll never deserve you.
The Astronomer
She was a galaxy, Lit from the inside with stars. He loved the night sky, So he observed her from afar. But he was was only an astronomer, And she was the endless night, So he sat with his telescope and waited until the time was right. He traced her constellations, He drew her crescent smile, But the astronomer never realized that even a galaxy can be fragile. She was constant, And so was he, The astronomer and the galaxy. So he found it surprising when he stepped out in the night, That the endless sky was devoid of any light. The astronomer fell to his knees and wept, Her name fell from his lips in a desperate plea. He searched the grass for stardust, He looked for a flicker of her in the sky. Surrounded by darkness he realized, stars shine the brightest before they die.
