We're both 17 and we broke up recently after dating for a few months.
I wrote this for her (and only for her) a few weeks later and gave it to her.
The only reply I got was a text saying "thankyou hope things are good with you x"
I'd like to say I put my heart and soul into this poem, but I didn't, because words can't even describe the way I feel about her.
I never usually do things like this for people, I don't like bonding emotionally with people because most of the time it hurts when things go wrong...
But this girl meant the world to me
and I can't help but feel that she didn't like it, or that it meant nothing to her...
Girls, what do you think?

Anyway, here it is:

Look up, look around you
These people around you; they were all children once
It doesn’t matter who we are now; once upon a time, we were all newborn, rocking in our cradles
But that doesn’t make childhood any less special

Look to your left, then to your right
Look to your friends and family; they’ve all felt sadness and loss at some point
But they’ve also known laughter, happiness, and maybe even love
That doesn’t make any of these feelings less important

Look up into the night sky
Those glistening, bright white stars
There are so many of them, more than there are grains of sand on every beach
But that doesn’t make any one of them less amazing

Look out, out to the warm horizon
There are six billion people in the world right now; they were all children once
They will all laugh, cry and smile; they will all look up and see the stars
Maybe, they'll all fall in love

But right now, there is no person
No feeling, no diamond
No star in the sky
As beautiful as you are
