Rejection

It usually breaks the heart into pieces, And pains the soul The pain so unreal to the naked eye Which I wear a mask to cover Seems to disintegrate every time I see you And suddenly it feels as though my walls are coming down And my emotions come out Nights are the worst though, Wishing and thinking of what we never had, It tears me apart like that Michael Jackson song, ‘Bad’ People say there’s more fish in the sea But you’re the one I want on my hook I want you to be here Here. Here. What a powerful word that is For being away is like a parent without their kids This abandonment which you have made me feel And the situation seems horrible and unreal My heart which seems like a soldier at best, Goes through relentless pressure which pushes it to the test Not only at war with this person, but also my brain Thoughts of being with them comes back and back again “Be rational” it screams, “Forget about him,” it shouts If only it was that easy, I would surely continue my life without a doubt.
