Empty

She always looks at you 
To see the shape of your face
The cute little way you hold your mouth when you concentrate
The way your eyes crinkle when you laugh and smile

You never look at her to see anything

She always listens to you
To hear how your day has been
The things you have done
The things that you want and need

You never listen to her to hear anything

She always touches you
To feel your warmth beneath her fingers
The curves of your body that she knows so well
To rub your back to ease the tension in your muscles

You never touch her to feel anything

She gives you her heart
Her love
Her compassion
She gives you her everything, and in return she receives nothing

Now she is nothing, an empty shell
Craving the things that she gives you without thinking
The things she deserves
Is she asking too much?
