  • “supplication”

    you have taken the world that I was
    and left me empty
    craving
    longing
    is there anything that I can use to fill the chasm
    on the side of the bed where you once slept

    I stumble home
    if I can even still call it that
    for in the taking, you
    took more than just yourself
    you took everything that meant something to me
    from this space and left it ruined
    just like me

    now even the flies are starving

    sobs wrack my threadbare chest
    everyone that I once knew is turning
    away from me and into their own personal
    darkness, tired
    can you come back and give me anything
    even undo me again
    please
