I put on a few pounds since you left.
I thought I had dropped everything
that belonged to you but I realized
I haven't let gone of the most important.
The love I had for you is now toxic
because I opened up my ocean for
you to swim in,
You licked me dry till I became an
island.
Everyday I put on weight, it's the pain
camouflaged as healthy living.
