Each ignored moment
every emotional brush-off
puts more distance between us
Your empty thrusts in the night
do nothing to fill the void
you’re leaving inside me
Your lack of love is closing my legs
Your minimal effort
is breaking my heart
You’d better stop ignoring this –
Lovers can change to Others
and you’re starting to change me
I don’t know about you, but this poem makes me depressed. I’ll put something lighthearted next week, I promise.
Love can be far more exciting to write about. Why do we sometimes feel a need to write about it in other terms? We all do from time to time.

Sad but true sometimes… really love the finishing verse: “Lovers can change to Others
and you’re starting to change me”

I feel it to be straightforward and gorgeous. The truth is the truth one cannot change what one feels in the moment. You said it beautifully. I love it.
