Love Me

my mind is racing
with many thoughts
but my page is blank
im empty

so much to say
but im lost for words
sad to a point
i cant cry

i try to act tough
unaffected by pain
but deep inside
you're crushing me

he says 'love's an excuse
to hurt and be hurt'
so im telling you
please hurt me

Smile~What a passionate longing within this write here dear lady! "Hello Precious Melanie D.!"~It was good to hear from yourself this morning! And I liked the way that you reached within for this write here! All great writers do~reach into their souls that is~to bring forth the treasures wherein this place of beauty they lie! Although, I hope your hurt, is really joy! "Have A Beautiful Day Melanie~Love Always To You & Your Loves, John!"~"Happy Holidays!"~Bye:)

Ooooohhh myyyyyy goooodnessss. In the name of all that's deep in poetry, I must comment on this. Mel, I know I've been the one doing the hurting. It's not right to fight fire with fire. To comment on that last stanza, Im feeling your pain. And I'm secretly hoping that you're feeling mine. Is this comment is inappropriate, I'll delete it, but still. All I know is that my hope is still alive, and it will be as long as I am
