PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

I sit amongst family friends 
  see the wam flow
  open arms

i feel despondent  
  hollowed
  empty

Their caring eyes
  gracious smiles 
  tender words

perpetual incursion 
  consumed within 
  calling...  

Your firm handshake
  a pat on the back
  her gentle embrace

cauterize calloused scars
  withdrawn 
  thirsts...

Intimacy unwavering
devotion unflinching 
fidelity unfounded

thrown away
undeserved 
hungering...

Consumed 
  by this thing
  all i have left

  this abused ink 
  this blank page
  this...
