I always believed
That the galaxies
In your eyes
Were more than just
The reflection
Of the sun,
Like I could pour glitter
Down your throat
And make you a star.

But you broke
My kaleidoscope glasses,
And forced my eyes
Wide open,
And now, I can't
Go
Back.

You're only a
Shattered
Glass window
That shone just right;
A mere reflection
Of multi-coloured starshine.
All you are
Is warped glass shards.

You're a monochromatic mirage,
And I'm a victim
Of translucent thinking, but
I see right through
Your clear, smooth lies.
Something I came up with while working on a piece for A Picture to 1000 Words' July Contest themed "Monochromatic".

I don't know if I really have the right idea... any suggestions?

Thanks guys <3
