The Last Poem I Ever Want to Write About a Girl

Today I watched the sun as it fell from the sky...
Literally

It crashed among the vermilion fields
Of unicorn haunts and fairy tale wishes
Like a firefly into my pupil
A kinetic response to mirror my pain
Spewing fire-drops of ruby discontent

Discontent, malcontent, this monument I do raise
A testament
To every wondrous moment we shared
Lollipops and gumdrops and bubblegum patches
To seal the cracks created

Created, cremated, this heart in my hand
Still beating for the memory
This utterly insane fallacy
Of life and love and secondhand daydreams
I tried to salvage us with every ounce of myself
I have nothing else to give

To give, forgive, me and my assumptions
I didn't presume to know
A whore dressed in a princess's clothing
Tinted with aspirations to become the
Queen of Spades

Spades, shades, of long lost kingdoms
Precariously perched upon waterfalls
With rainbows criss-crossing
The spires
Invisible in the clouds as was I...
