Love Poem: Self Loveless

Written by: Michael Smith

Self Loveless

Days abashed and washed
Surrendering further to the depths
Gulps of my own selfishness
Oceans vast with a man of "ifs" 
Your love merely as my bouyancy
Another slip under holding breaths
I take and take, over and over again
But to you, drowning is the irony 
For that love returned, I can never give
