She looms in my mind; she hovers
my thoughts completely aromatized
I remember the days; us lovers
as one we seemed to be optimized
A duo is oh so efficient
at nursing the needs of each other
In time you become so proficient
there is never a need for another
But break the pair and you'll find
alone just tastes acidophilous
With beings no longer combined
each second in time feels so treacherous

You posted in 3WW!
I keep coming back to the second to last sentence. For some reason it takes a bit out of the sting of the last one
I have felt pain like this, and you have captured it so well. Ouch.
There's a deceptive deepness to this. Ouch, indeed.
Yeah, the pain hurts, but it makes good poetry. I love the sound of that word 'acidophilous', and the little word thingy, 'a duo is oh so'.
Fine work that shows where many of us have been...Neatly written!
I thought this was very well written, full of subtle poignancy. Enjoyed the use of acidophilous.
This somehow touched me..
3WW: no pawns spared

yes, ouch. splitting hurts when the combined becomes so "one" -Meg
