Sustenance Poem by Edwina Reizer

Sustenance

Rating: ★5.0


I can go without food for a while
and for a shorter while without drink.
But I don't seem to be able to go without you.
That is what I think.

For you're the food that nurtures me
and the drink that slakes my thirst.
For I'd waste away to nothing, love
by not having you always first.
