Your Love

A Dark Set of Poetry

By Morgan Cooper ShonkaPublished 8 years ago • 1 min read

"Consuming Me Dry"

My love for you is consuming me dry

It is all I can seem to think about, day in

Day out, yet I still manage to dissatisfy,

You continue to push me further away

Yet I always find my way back to you

But you rather have me crying loud

Begging for forgiveness

I know that only God can hear my screams

In need of leaving now, please help me

Consuming me dry, to the worst degree

Her

You are drinking at the bar with her now

I got a text from a friend

How do I allow this from you

There's a hotel down the block you seek

To take her too and you'll both now cheat

Suddenly I'm not strong I'm weak

You both now slide into the backseat

My heart starts to break inside and out

Does she know what you are all about?

She is just being fooled and deceived

Soon enough she will learn and know

And then she will hit a heartbreaking low
