Because of Him

She used to be whole, She used to have Galaxies inside Her mind and soul. You could have looked Into her eyes And watched the Stars being born. Her smile shon Like the sun. And her laughter could Have cured the earth. But then he came along. He ignored the universe Within her, He covered her smile Like the clouds cover The sun on a rainy Day. And yet she didn't care. She didn't care because He was as wonderful And as mysterious As the deepest part Of the ocean. He gave her ripples Of love, when She deserved tidal waves. And instead of creating Storms for her, he Created storms to destroy Her. it slowly did. He plucked every Star out of her soul, And her smile was No longer a burning Flame. And so she wasn't filled With galaxies anymore. The dark matter had Consumed her And left her no more.
