Starved of Affection

Your poison soothes

My hungry soul

Quenches my thirst

Makes me whole

So deprived

Of life’s sweet kiss

I turn to you

In enchanted bliss

To fill me with

My deepest desires

To ease my pain

Ignite my fire

Even though

It is death

You bring

I long for death

Like the tree s in spring

I yearn for you

Your poisoned touch

Unknowing love

Truth and such

I wonder how

I could not see

The truth of you

In front of me

My hungry eyes  see

A gentle kiss

Not knowing what lies

Beyond death’s

Eternal bliss

My attempt at 100 words from Velvet Verbosity. This week's prompt was: STARVED. When I was younger I use to write in this style all of the time. I had boxes and boxes of notebooks with page after page of poetry written. It was my way of telling the world what was happening inside of my head, but no one could ever figure out the message. Yet somehow it made perfect sense to me. I haven't written like this in a long time so I thought this challenge was the perfect way to start again.
