You merely met my expectations.
I fear you are leaving me behind,
pushing away with the right
the left unsure how to let go.
Where once I was, possibly, something,
I have become nothing, a commodity
when the well runs dry.
You merely fulfilled my expectations.
I am more than nothing, and I accept
I did not open the door to possibility.
I couldn't give, what I believed would
not be valued. I couldn't give based on
flesh alone. I am more than flesh.
You became more than flesh. You merely
fulfilled my expectations.
