Apricot bites rarely sate me
when denial’s left me cold
Bingeing, tongue to steel
I scrap away my lover’s glow
Finding promiscuity, quite fondly
suits to save my shattered soul

indeed that shattered soul will be saved, not by sweet nectar of apricot bites....it is the pit that is the driving force [and it has the metallic taste of steel]
WTG!

a good piece of poetry, i like the use of apricot to begin this poem as of fruit imagery i do not see it used that often which is a good thing, to be unique in turns of phrase. a sad sigh here with love i find.

Lines 5 and 6 are really good. Bravo!

Hey! Remember me?! I'm back!

And I'm glad poets like yourself are still here. You wrote only 6 lines, but in those six lines you used such profound words in a poetic maner that the length is barely noticable. You really pulled this one off nicely and appreciate you sharing it here with us
