Vacuum

You would not swallow.
I baited you, fleshed you,
comforted you, prepared you,
you rejected.

I shuddered for you,
pumped my soul into your
void. Don't ask me why.
You suffocated me.

You were barren in my
skin, my mind; I tried
to wash myself down your
throat with plasma,

With my red and
white. You never noticed
me. I could never
touch you; above me.

You are a wasteland now.
(Okay, lie.)
