Utter Devotion

Love like his, consumed.

It took up residence in the mind.

Settled its way deep into the bones.

Left one... Addicted.

And so, she took him in like air.

Devoured his words,

She consumed his everything to the point of no return.

She left nothing of herself to thrive on.

So when he fled, he left the skeleton of a girl behind.
