Do You

Do you know
how alone you make me feel?
Do you care
that your words make me want to take my own life?
Do you see
the scars left from every fight we've had?
Do you want
me in your life at all?
Do you love
anything about me, even a little?
Do you hear
my pleas for you to love me like I love you?

Thanks for sharing this... exposing your thoughts through your unique poetic style. Meanwhile, I greet you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." Be blessed.

An excellent piece Linda. Feelings put into words for all the people who suffer in loveless relationships. From one to seven this gets a 10 from me. Bravo. God Bless, JB
