Correction

From afar, I saw you
Your eyes dripped with redemption
For life has never been kind to me

I clutched you in impetuosity
My heart said, “Grab and bolt down the centrepiece!”
“And we’ll figure out the rest of the puzzle later”

Yet we forgot—the grip of despair is too strong to bear
The piece of blue sapphire cracked in an instant…
Now empty and desolate nights, with nobody to care
