I seek your approval like a bear seeks honey.
But rather than sweet success
I am forced to swallow spoonful after spoonful of rejection.
The stinging feeling makes me want to gag.
Yet like a ****** I keep coming back for more.
Yearning for your comforting voice, that soothing high pitched melody.
But all I hear- is buzzing.
The bass amp in my room reminds me of you.
The buzzing, my sole comfort.
My fingers, swollen and bruised from endless hours of self pity.
The spot on my chest where you struck
Your sharp black dagger lodged between where I thought of you-
And where you thought I thought of you.
I gave you my all, and you flew and soared
Far, far away- majestic as ever.
Until I could barely make out those black and yellow stripes.
The Queen leaving her nest, leaving her workers
Abandoning her family for pastures greener
To fly out into the great unknown
I never did discover where you went.
But till this day- I still can't eat honey.
