hungry

She wants me to mentally

f**k her pain

away

pretend we more than

just a two night stand

memories of

 

and im not a wound licker

dried blood clot tender

so I pass this time

explaining why

as she puts me

once again

on the sidelines of her life

catching drip drops

of her

 

she’s boring me

and the hunger in me

isn’t being fed

mental rumbles

echoing in a space

long ago occupied by her

 

so why bother

 

sidelines

frontlines

by her side

isn’t something that

interests me

anymore

 

did I mention I’m bored

 

or should I stress

we’ve been here before

easing pain with

band aids of fake love

fake want

fake wetness seeping

from pens

of invisible ink

 

she says I understand her

like no other

and I say

she misunderstands me

like no other

 

pretending once again

we friends

till silence finds us again

time passes again

and we part once again

 

im hungry

she feeds me no more

A poem about going through the motions of love without loving. I love this.
