I looked at him
Like he was a planet,
A cause for exploration,
Amusement and wonder
He looked at her
Like she was a star
Fascinated by her beauty
And captured by her light
She looked at him
Like he was the Sun
An annoyance
but once gone
Would be noticed
It hurt, not that
I wasn't his constellation
But that he was her
Sun and she was his
Star
unrequited love,
The saddest kind
Was sighted
