Never, have I said:
   "Complete."
Never has my heart
   beat three.
And no, not I,
   to be confused--
'concession speech'
(It's true...I lose...)

No, not once, when heart beat twice,
did ever whisper I:  "Suffice..."
I yearn my heart beat time to one.
(Creation--all would be undone...)
Methinks you WANT (for me to bleed...)
Chalice--empty--craving seed...

Empty I,
awaiting fate--
(amongst the dogs, I leave full plate...)

puzzled by their need.

Jeez, sen, you get the notion of love's (yearning's, lust's, whatever's) confusion perfectly here. Did someone really say you wrote pedestrian poetry? Then get out the crosswalk STOP signs, and beat whoever said that over the head with them.
