Did the quality
Of your life
Improve
Whilst you were
With him?
_____________________
Did the stars
In your eyes shine,
Or did they mask
Your silent screams?
_____________________
With every word he uttered,
Did your heart flutter?
_____________________
Did his touch
Melt your insides
Like butter,
Or did you cringe
And long for another?
_____________________
When you slept,
Did your dreams make you smile?
_____________________
Or did you
Break into a sweat,
And think,
‘Why is this love
So futile?’
