I Am A Robot... Poem by Owoeye Taiwo Bisola

I am a ROBOT, I can't comprehend the meaning of love anymore,
I am a ROBOT, love is faceless to me now, as if I've never beheld its face,
I used to perceive the perfume of love from your body, now it's just a stench,
I used to feel the love from your stream of utterances, now they're just hogwash,
Now you've made love acidulous and astringent on my tongue and my skin.

You glided into my dreamy days, you ripped out my heart from my chest,
You slittered into my life like a klepto, you stole my soul along with my sanity,
I used to think our love was written in the stars, now it's just a cloudy mist,
I used to think we would reach for the stars and knock them out from the night sky,
Now my chest is a gaping hole to the flies and vultures that desire to devour my entrails.
