First poem for today:

"Doubt”

I count the days I had

you in my arms

and all the charms you

placed on my heart

now you finally have me

in your web

you pull away instead

of drawing near

I now only feel coldness

that I thought was gone

and I begin to question

where things went wrong

perhaps for you it was all

just a charade

those loving words you

said, you never meant

cutting pieces out of me

leaving me bleeding

on a steel cold slab for

the vultures to feed

now I find myself doubting

every promise one makes
