If only I had never met you
Never pressed my lips on your mouth
Never guzzled your essence
Never leered at your neck
.
You’ve poisoned my soul
Snatched my children,
Ruined my health,
Crushed my
Life
About the Creator
Lily Séjor
Lily is really not the best at describing herself, so she'll put this down for now and circle back when (if) she's inspired. For now, she wants you to know that she's your verbose friend who rarely knows what to say.

Love the way you structured this with the progression of “Nevers” into the list of offenses. Great nonet!
Beautiful and so incredibly heartbreaking.
So painfully potent.
Gorgeous poem
