He scattered the fragments of their life behind, enticing her to follow.
The constant gnawing emptiness always
left her feeling hollow.
She still strode behind, hand outstretched
her hunger growling for more.
Even though she eats what she’s given
it was rotten to the core.
That toxic heart and what little it gave
Made her mouth fill with bile but salivate.
A starving rat doesn’t want waste
but with time and starvation
it develops a taste.
Anything tastes good
if that’s all you’re ever given.
He pavloved her to accept this life,
her heart has been conditioned.
But the trail runs out
no more love left to leave,
what he had to give was always finite,
finally, reprieve.
You’re done starving,
habits can break
sit down my love
I’ll make you a plate.
♥
I am so grateful that the crumbs left behind for you ran out, every step you took led you to me. You will never hunger again.
