In the middle of the room,
There is something glowing,
Lighting half of the room up.

It was a planet,
Filled with green and mostly blue.

Being a child filled with curiosity,
I went to it,
Wanting to know about it.

I held the planet up high,
Seeing all of the beauty it has,
All the glorious greens,
And the bluest of seas.

I can see everything in it,
The fish that live there,
The forests with dangerous animals,
All of the liveliness in it.

Such an amazing blue,
One shade of which being my favorite,
Besides brown and red,
And I love it so much.

I shouldn't be having the planet in my hands,
But I can't help it,
You are the world to me,
I can't put nothing else above you,
No matter what I do.

There are moons,
And other small planets,
Floating by you,
But nothing I can love as dearly as you.

Not even the stars could compare,
Even the galaxy wasn't as beautiful as you.

I wish I could truly have you,
But I know I can't,
Without dire consequences,
One of which I could possibly lose you.

I don't wish to lose you.
So for all these years,
I try and I try to move on,
And try to love other planets,
Like I do with you,
Possibly even more than you.

I find another world,
One of which is enormous,
And it's marvelous to see,
With its oranges and whites.

Yet, I can't rid you from my mind,
Can't rid you from my sight,
As I can see your blue ocean from afar,
And still think of how much I love it.

I can't put nothing else above you,
No matter how hard I try,
And it scares me,
Terrifies me even.

I can't love you like I want to,
As it'll destroy everything we have,
So this has to remain on my side,
And not on both,
No matter how much it hurts.

If you knew,
It would destroy our lives,
Destroy our peace,
Everything around us,
Would become

. . . . .Dust.

But I keep both planets,
By my side,
Caring for both in different ways,
Loving them dearly.

Soon after,
There became small planets by their sides,
One ruby red,
One sapphire blue,
And one emerald green.

They were all that I cared for,
All five planets I loved,
With all my heart,
As they're all the world to me.

A couple years later,
Everything disappears,
Nothing in this dark empty room,
To keep me company.

Nothing to light up the room.

Everything feels so cold,
So lonely,
So... Empty and depressing.

I can't live without you by my side,
It hurts so much,
I don't know what to do without you,
But I have to survive.

For you and my small worlds.


A/N: Man, it's been awhile since I've done a poem for this series. So, why not come back with a poem that's longer than usual? At least, I hope this is a little longer than the other poems I usually post, ha. I can't really say much for this one, so knock yourselves out trying to figure out what this one's about.

I wanted to mess around with the spacing with the words a little bit, since I've never done that before, and I thought it came out nicely even if it was just for one section of the poem, haha. But I hope everyone enjoys this one and everything. Oh, and probably unrelated, but happy birthday Della and Donald!
