Thoughts of a Sad Lover

sadness and madness

When we spoke our first few words, I didn't think things would go like this.
You were so gentle, so sweet.
You yearned for my attention, not long before I started yearning for yours.

I thought you would be a fling. Oh how wrong I was.

My eyes, to others they were dull, no beauty. But to you, to you their sparkles outran the ocean and overlooked the galaxies.

We wanted more. We wanted sweat, flesh against flesh.
You loved the way I grinded my body into yours, and how I ran my fingers through your locks.
And I loved the way you growled into my ear, and how you sank your teeth into the nape of my throat.

You.. started to change. You seemed to have.. excuses? You became distant. You made me feel unwanted, like I did something wrong. I'm scared to show my love for you, fearing I may go too far, when we used to go farther than the mountains.

I wanted to leave, but I couldn't bear the thought of day without you. I couldn't leave. You have turned to my everything.. But I have turned to your nothing..

Very sad indeed to feel unwanted and unloved by someone after they made you feel like you were everything.

Sad indeed. Strange how love that once burned so fiercely bright can almost become extinguished, without any clear reason why. Yes, sadness and madness, as you say. An expressive poem.
