i want my sugar back

i want my cup of sugar
back.

i want my
words, my poetry,

my kisses, my affection returned
to me.

i want my feelings
sent
to my address,

along with my love,

all of it box carefully
and packed, sent
back.

i want my cup
of sugar.

i want all
of that emotion,
that tenderness
and compassion, all of
it,

I want it
back.

I want it restored

in me. saved for someone
more deserving

than you.
