The Leaves

A Story. Part 1

It was never enough for him.

I gave him all the attention I thought he needed, all the attention I had in me. But he didn't think it was enough.

I gave him my ears, my mouth, my hands.

I listened to him, gave him advice, gave him comfort.

With all that, he still expected an entire arm, a leg, a foot, and my nose if he could find any use for it.

I didn't understand what it was he desperately desired from me.

It wasn't me, he didn't love me.

He loved something about me, I can't put my finger on it still, because he has that too.
