Bottomless pit

You drown me with your affection
Cloaked me with your
Promises and
Enticed me with your tongue
You swear you’ll always be around
And you’ll always be there for me
But now it’s all in the past
And we’re both moving on

It’s never a competition
Who love less or more but
You said I always fuck up
And told me to shut up
Then you’re out the door
Without looking back
And never to return

All I asked is your love
Your understanding should be
Enough
But all we do is fight
It’s tiring and draining
I’m left with nothing
But drowning in a
Bottomless pit
