Unloved

I hate your love as if you really love me to pieces

you crumble me with your words of pain and war that I fight to keep what we have

breathing breathes of life into breathes of life

the hurts from your past experiences of what you didn’t ask for

you bleed me with your sharp tongue and kiss me with the hate in your eyes

who do I have the pleasure of meeting today

now you say these words to me the me that you see

I cry for you and you cry for you for me and the things that you do not see...blindness

you choose to cover your mind staying behind what is not behind you but stands with you

hopefully not for eternity but eternity is forever

more of what you don’t need needs you to live

so it can forever torment your pain that you have unknowingly and knowingly...together at once it stays

deep inside of you festering bigger and stronger than you thought you could be at this moment in time

you chime in on life’s moments of opportunity that knocks for you but you do not answer the door

looking for more of the hurt asking for more of the pain crying for more of the same of yesterday
