Emotional Masturbation by WriteousDavid(op): 1:11pm On Nov 18, 2016
EMOTIONAL MASTURBATION


I don’t mean
Loving you is
A waste of emotion

But
Why should I?

Why should I promise?
To love you till eternity
When I know I won’t live forever

Why should I vow
To stay with you forever
When tomorrow may come
Without me

I’m not omnipresent
So why should I promise
To always be there for you !

If all it will shelter in you
Is but pain and remorse
While I’m gone
Then why should I love you in return?

What more do I need
To learn about life
After I’ve learnt
Life goes on without me!
