Dehydration

The thirst was once mutual

Until you cut my supply

You kept me thirsty how could you

Was it because your well was dry?

I’m licking my lips puckered for a kiss

And all I can get is a mouth full of lies

Can’t bear you to see me naked but hope you undress me with your eyes

I’m starving for rain

Trying to soothe your pain

At the brink of dehydrating until you served me a spoon of water

And I complain, I say its too little and too salty

Unbeknownst to me you poured yourself into that spoon

The tears of whatever love you had left

For me
