APPETITE


"Do not, DO NOT! Let a man define your life", he said
She felt strong
She developed an appetite 

"I moved cities for you", he said.
She smiled and choked
An appetite for stories

Few months later
That felt like a million years
She cannot imprison her thoughts 
In her expressions
Her appetite for destructive silence

 All she wishes
That he had completed his sentences 

He did complete them
Not in words but
In flesh and blood 
She is scared to read them complete. 

"You make me complete", he said.
"You will leave me", she always felt
Like half a spoiled portrait, 
abandoned by its artist 
Who ran away 
To save his face
His appetite for grandeur

Who turns away when 
Every-time it's pulled up 
On a humiliating display 
Her appetite for his silence
Was now over
