Love Poem to a Lover Lost | An Original Poem

Basic
You. Me. — We felt so right!  Our hookups filled
my life with such smoky satisfaction,
and oh! you asked for nothing in return.
Except my heart....  My breath...  My lungs....  My life.
Your temptation leaves me speechless! (Exhale)
Fills in me a notion of ease; charges
with lighter fluid, cadmium.  Answers
my ache with ammonia, arsenic —
nourishes me with nicotine.  Lover!
Please, please! — Remind me why I let you go!
