Hunger - A Love Letter

Hunger - A Love Letter

A Poem by Irving Glass
"

This one's a bit half baked to be honest.

"

I miss you


It’s been over a year


I can’t quite believe


You’re no longer here


After all the times I came to you


And looked to you for the future


You managed to cool my howling heart


With your pure bone


And even though at the crucial moment


You always, always left me


To be eaten by the horror


You said you’d save me from


To kneel vomiting in cold showers


Trying to fix myself


It was still you I turned to


When I was ready to start again


You always somehow returned


And held my hand again


To lead my gently on a righteous path


I’d already half forgotten


You’d led me down before



But still


I miss you


I always will


And even though you brought me to my knees


I can’t help but look upon our days together with love
