Unrequited

I would scream. 

Slap! Why do you do this? 

It hurts hurts hurts. 

Every time again

 

You come back

Into my good graces.

Goodness gracious,

I am through.

 

I never am,

You still linger. No!

 Always here yet somehow

You never stay. 

 

That is it. 

Breathing in toxic air

Gasping

Lungs own ruin.
