Left Wasting

Nonet

I said this time would be different

I wanted him to feed my soul

Link our hearts using an IV

Circulate love and peace

He grew dependent

My love, his drug

He drained me

Left me

Starved

    Sadly, this happens way too often. Loved your poem so much!

    Very relatable. Everyone wants love and to be able to love but when it’s not returned it gets so draining. Very beauriful

    Excellent imagery, loved how you used IV and circulate

  • Excelent take on the challenge, it is sad when this happens
