Love Poem: Deveined

Deveined

It all started with an ember
A tiny whisper, a slow fire
The beginning blaze
Of just one gaze 
Would leave me forever changed

Started off so good
You stood by me so long
So fatefully fingered 
Such a calloused little angler
You've become 

And so my power wanes but you don't care
Leave the growing stains from the wounds you make
Eating out my hollowed remains
And pouring out all I've restrained
Not pleading doubt
I'm bleeding now
Can't stand this drain
Just void and deveined

What once was right
Is a fight, is a curse
The screaming abuse
And a shortened fuse
Is all we have to lose

Ended up so bad
You've left me now so fast
So fatally handled
Blistered and battled
You are

And so my power wanes, you just don't care
Leave the growing stains from your piercing hate
Carving out my hollowed remains
And raining out all I've restrained
My pleading shout
I'm just bleeding out
Can't stand this drain
Just void and deveined

Can't stand this drain
You've left me insane
I'm void and deveined
