i gave until i had no more to give until i then got left behind indeed beneath me to make demands i wanted to hear what was in your heart i needed to see what you were made of i wouldn't ask for the love i craved the love you should have gladly given you mistook my silence for apathy for not wanting much out of life not expecting much out of love in fact i merely hoped you'd do your part to feel the need to make me happy to make me your true love and passion to gladly go above and beyond and never ask when is enough enough Posted on November 1, 2024

I think many people feel that way about their partners. So sad that it happens. Even when you write free verse, it's often no longer than this here poem. For that, I dub you Queen of Itty bitty poetry, which is also very lovely poetry,

Love is a spiritual bond, there's no need for words, it's so sad when for whatever reason the bond is broken. Enjoyed reading your poem Line. xx

'to be left behind' and all that comes along with it is hurtful. You have portrayed the sadness in true style dear poet. Last line says it all.

How sad this makes me feel that someone has to ask for love. In cases like that , is it truly enough ? I feel for the person in this poem, and I'm hoping it is fiction .:(
