Quilling Love

Dearest,

The lust for debauchery
Ferociously subsides
in the understanding
Of the farness to you
The distance between us now
And us when
just as the desire
Never ending

I continue with delusions
be assured my dearest
i barely rest only to fall Weakly
Out of arms that are not yours

Even in this staleness
This unwavering discipline
Do my heart strings continue to unravel
being forced into tremendous
subsequently damned
Efforts to forsake
My stirring

My madness
My craving

I learn to live with it
As i would an angry, desperate roommate
A bedfellow that is tainted
Passionately insistent on reminding me your space is vacant

I live with it
But i can no longer love.

Yours eternally,


KH
