Perfect Paradise

By hazel basil

look at me

do you see in my eyes

my perfect paradise

tearing apart

the once calm waters

now crashing on the broken shore

waves spilling out my eyes

and streaking down my face

the stars once shining

sputter out

I started with stars in my eyes

but my sun didn't rise

and I'm left with an empty night sky

Author Notes: the song lyrics "look into my eyes, tell me what you see. perfect paradise tearing at the seams." inspired this poem...hoped you like it :)
