The Way You Make Me Feel

The Way You Make Me Feel

A Poem by Melissa Kester

Is this what love is supposed to be -
A darkness smothered over me?
Is this how I am supposed to feel -
Like worthless, useless, tasteless, veal?
Is this the best that I deserve -
To be treated like I was made to serve?
Is this the best that I'll get from you -
A lifeless marriage made for two?

You write so beautifully, soft phrases wrapped around tragedy... such a waste of your incredible skill.
So wish you could stand firm and fight for light, dear friend.

If you need a friend, leave me a message, will get back asap, Melissa.
Another gem. There's a small error in that one "the" in Line 5 should be "this" but other than that, this is short, powerful, and amazing! Well done!

Thank you for spotting that. I will surely fix it.
I love your words
I don't love how you feel
But its good you expressed it so well
I hope that will bring some relief
