the hollow expiration of the modern echoA Poem by florencedecember 2019i am tearing myself apart in my bed at night where you have lain in the daytime and God! - forever and always - i want what i cannot have. i cannot rest; i do not eat - i desire desperately and feel nothing else but a deep and pulsing need for something that will not be mine and i am in agony; i am facing the cruelty of mine own nature and i am suffering through
it, i martyr myself for the sunlight on your face as you sleep and the cold winter is nothing for it. i am awake till
morning. you say you have dreamt of nothing. © 2020 florenceAuthor's Note
