PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

I never said I loved you first

because every workday you left me, 

I ran to the arms of other men

to relieve my loneliness.

I talked sexually with them,
sending pictures and videos

so they would fantasize about me
because I got off on the attention.

Sometimes it became emotional

but the last time, the final time,
it was all of the above.

And after developing

an emotional connection,

I actually let it become physical,

skin-to-skin contact.

Thankfully we both

controlled ourselves

before we let our bodies

become one.

Because If that happened

there would have been

no turning back.

So if you are wondering why

I never said I loved you first,

it is because I didn't.

My actions reflect that,

but despite my lack of love,

you loved me enough

for the both of us.
