My Heart

you know how to rip my heart out with
one single look, this seems to be 
a game to you. How can I love you 
so much when I know that deep
inside my heart we will never truly
be together. It hurts for me to acknowledge this harsh fact that
has become my life. I promised 
that you I would never harm myself 
in a way that might anger you.
But in the end it is not I that
seems to hurt me it is you.
