I will never beg,
for you to stay in my life,
to fulfil the caverns
of my heart,
to hear
the hollows of my bare, ridden soul
You do not deserve
the depths of my love,
that flows endlessly,
watering your garden of
never ending despair,
If you wanted to leave,
then just leave!
With no going back,
a one way ticket,
with no possible return.
I am not
a side piece.
For you to toss away
carelessly,
like another
crumpled piece of shrunken up paper,
For I am not rubbish,
compiling, up to dust,
with no relevance,
with no sense of substance
lacking in dignity,
lacking in fame
For you are poison to me,
the one that is
sourced
from the wicked cauldrons
the one I will drink endlessly,
until the time the lesson is learnt
until the time I will
at last
remember,
that my worth is not dependent,
upon you.
