The Weight of Always

Your love made me a beggar

Made me beg for your time,

Made me beg for your replies,

Made me beg for your attention.


I am just a girl -

Who always needed to be treated the way I once was,

Who always needed the words you affirmed,

Who always longed for the love you poured,

Who always wanted your presence around,

Who always... always... always... begged.


I begged in silence, in whispers, in cries,

In unsent messages in sleepless nights.

I begged in the spaces between your words,

In the coldness of your fading touch.


Finally, your love made me a lover -

who now even begs for love.

This isn't just a sad poem; it's a sharp critique of a relationship that systematically eroded the speaker's sense of self-worth. It's a difficult but important read, capturing a specific and profound kind of heartbreak.
