Damn you why do you have to do that
Love her like you do
Do you have any idea what it does to me
How hurt I feel
Knowing you know
I can see
Those beautiful words you write for her
And then I covet those words
I covet them for me
Only they aren’t for me
They are for her
She gets to read about your desire
Your fire
So now I’m sad and empty
Nothing inside
Not you,
Not even me
Screw it
My truth revealed
No more expectations to be concealed

Read a couple of your older poems. This is is very strong and touching.
Enjoyed it.

Yikes, whomever this was intended for, they better watch their back, which I don't blame you, because... well I know how it all is. Great revealing poem!
