Matchless

Your tears are not salty enough…

They don’t touch me anyhow

Your dreams are too rough

Destroying the sense I found just about now.

Your love is the same…

Pure, sweet, but I’m not the receiver.

In this savage, mindless game

All the stakes are on the faith believer.

Your hope’s not good enough

Not for me.

My mind is corrupt

And will always be.

What a great poem... sometimes I feel the same way. "Your love is the same... Pure, sweet, but I'm not the receiver." I love those lines

Im overcome with a sadness on reading this Ana. It comes on the heels of no Hint which shouldn't make any difference but I read one then came straight here so Im carrying a bit of 'No Hint' baggage I guess too. The size and colour of the font is a clue - theres an anger and a defiance - this would have suited Bold and all Caps, I feel and it would still have conveyed the same feelings.
the speaker feels undeserving of the lover and anyway they seem to have moved on to newer pastures so the blame might as well fall on the writer - its their fault - they don't deserve to be happy (do they?)
So sad.

a strong poem Ana, carries a bitter overtone of a love gone wrong, you have cast him aside and will move on, did he hurt you, maybe but your wrath seems complete at the end, there is no future. Excellent poem as always :)
