Unicorns


One night you woke up and didn't believe anymore
You had believed the stories about dragons
She had been your unicorn from the day you saw her
She was exquisite and different in a world of similarities
You had seen the depth of the sky in her angelic eyes
You knew this feeling, it was uniquely crafted to fulfil
Yet your heart’s desire was to remain full and intact
You were willing to give your heart to this one
She was no ordinary person, she was a rare creature
She was not from this world, she co-existed with the gods
She was the blood in humans and the water in the seas
She understood the words you never managed to utter
She smiled to the sarcasm you deeply hid
She appreciated the thoughts you never expressed
You never believed that she was as real as them
She was simple and yet utterly complex
She was a god and yet possessed the beauty of the angels
She was a broad subject and you believed what you saw
She was a unicorn; you were the one she belonged to
But you never knew how to tame a wild bird
So one Wednesday evening you saw her walk away
You tried to beg her to stay but she never stared back
You were sure that she was not like the rest
She was a god and had no place for little sentiments
She had seen enough of the world and she was going
Going to look over her kingdoms while you built one
You built a kingdom with the tears and the pain
You believed in unicorns and the world destroyed you
That’s the price you paid for trusting and believing
