Awaken to the smell of ashes,
Another night - I've left everything burning.
The sky reflects my carelessness this morning,
And in all apology -
I know I've ruined your beautiful day,
But there were nights that carried us higher than this.
We once crossed the balconies lined with stars.
Protruding past levels condensed in darkness.
With a sullen expression,
I cast my eyes upon your hidden face.
A soft light from one glowing star revealed your frustration.
No beauty could ever satisfy you.
I strived endlessly to show you the pleasantries I admire,
But frustration never left your eyes -
Worn like goggles to protect you from foreign experience.
You're going to live your life with one perspective.
Have you ever thought to turn,
Or to chance something?
I did my best,
You pushed me away,
...Broke my heart,
You turned everything beautiful to ashes.

I can relate to this. I know people that view everything so negatively and when you try to point out the good in life - all they do is focus on the bad.
Great poem which was expressed so imaginatively.
