I Tried

I tried spending time in the past, but it has changed…

I tried reviving a spark for a ghost I once adored, but it had died…

I tried loving the same little girl for a lifetime, but she had ceased to be…

I tried needing a new reason for this miserable existence, but it has not changed…

I tried believing in the words she once spoke in a dream, but I have forgotten all of them…

I tried seeing the secrets hidden behind the strength in two gorgeous green eyes, and was amazed…

I tried comparing the girls to the stars, and I have come short…

The stars seemed to grow paler and sick looking by the breath.

I tried pulling her to me, but all she did was push me away smiling…

Silly girl cannot yet see past appearances.

I tried leaning into her sight and holding her tight to my chest,

But I forgot my chest is no longer my own, not in this life.

I tried prying open her mind to see her deepest thoughts,

But got pulled out forcefully before I managed to know the answers.

I tried loving her like she was never loved,

But all I ended up doing was hurt her like she has never been hurt before.

I tried sinking my teeth in her skin, drinking like sin…

But I could not harm that layer of perfection.

I tried leaving and never returning…

But I found myself lost inside my mind hearing my heart long for her.

I tried seeing the secrets hidden behind the strength in two gorgeous green eyes, and was amazed…

I tried believing in the words she once spoke in a dream, and I have found myself…

I tried needing a new reason for this miserable existence and she gave me life…

I tried loving the same little girl for a lifetime and I found another angel…

I tried reviving a spark for a ghost I once knew and I didn’t need it…

I tried spending time in the past, but I have found her in my present.

But I have tried.
