Reservoir

You’re my reservoir of all the things
I promised you
And couldn’t do
My little source of rotten hope
You overflow
With all we’ve had
To undergo
And all the shame
Of such an ineffective love
As mine
To run you dry

"my little source of rotten hope" is very catchy and rhythmic. I like the theme and, and the brevity.
