What's Love Compared To This? Poem by Geovanni Leaño

The room was too dark,
And I sit by my window,
Witnessing the night sky spark,

I am doing nothing-
just thinking of you,
I'm waiting for something,

As the night conspire,
closing my eyes-
I never desire,

You never left my mind,
So beautiful, the stars!
Thank God, I'm not blind,

I sit patiently waiting,
Fighting over my body
just to witness that something,

I blinked!
Then tears streamed down my face,
Just because I blinked,

That wishing star I'm waiting,
but I missed my single chance!
Now I sit here crying,

It was not meant for me,
nor for anyone,
it was for you, I kept it in me,

I never wished anything,
but for you to smile tomorrow,
that is my everything.
