My Pain

He says " I'm sorry"

That is what he said before.

"It won't happen again" he says

How do I know?

You hurt me for the last time,

I feel the tears.

He tells me " please don't cry"

He has no right!

"I love u " he says.

You don't know what love is.

"I do love u with all my heart" he says.

You are incapable of loving.

"Why am I am not good enough" I ask through the pain.

" You are" he says while holding me.

I think in my head(he makes me feel safe)

"Don't touch me!!!" I hear myself scream.

I know what has to be done.

He's begging me "please don't go"

I slowly walk away.

He calls my name,

It won't work not this time.

He lost me forever.
