Yeah i guess you won.
By steven winters
Your love was the liquid that filled my thirsty soul
I craved you like a drug my obsession kept me around
The days between you felt pointless and often went askew
And the nights in between you dragged on endlessly
I no longer ate because the scent of you filled me
When i was thirsty i drank in your beauty
When we touched the fires of passion snaked through me burning me clean
I gave
you all i had i split my chest open so you could take the heart that beat
only for you
You told me i was to needy like a child crying for the
nourishment that its mother must provide
You said there was nothing
i could give to you that you hadn't already took.
Your sharp words
cut through me better than any knife ever could
I screamed for you
to just go i told you that your body was just like the soil and that you
would willingly spread your legs for any seeds you thought would grow.
When you left for that final time I was sorry for the things i said and
how the words became seeds of resentment that took root in your fertile
head
When the door slammed and i was once again alone the water of
sorrow spilled from my eyes
I fell to the floor in a coughing shaking
fit clawing at my chest trying to comprehend the hole that was where my
heart should be
