been licking love
off your knife.
it tastes like
everything i have
been hungry for
but i am never satiated.
been chasing the rush
you give me
when you kiss my neck
and leave your mark
because i am yours
but you are not mine.
i miss you
even when i am with you
because i know
you were never really
there.
never said hello to you
only goodbye.
it hurt even when
i met you.
i knew you’d
make my tongue
bleed
and my heart break
and my soul
would forever wait for you
in the stillness of the night.
knives can kill.

The Three Foolish Princesses
Once upon a time in a land filled with sunshine and laughter, there was a village so pretty it looked like a painting. This village was home to King Chima, a king loved by all because he was as wise as he was kind. His big heart reached out to everyone, making sure they were happy and safe. King Chima had a large family with two wives. His first wife, Julie, gave him three daughters—princesses who were as beautiful as the morning sun. Then there was Uchi, his second wife, who gave him two brave sons—future kings of the land.

“i miss you even when i am with you because i know you were never really there. never said hello to you only goodbye.” That is the perfect summation of how it feels to give to someone who only takes.
