Suffering

Suffering

My heart cries out to you

like the moon cries out to the night.

I trusted you with my love,

obviously you couldn’t care less.

Why do you do this to me? 

Why me?

Is it funny? Is it cool?

How is it that you make me out to be the fool?

I cry and cry till I just can’t no longer.

The scars on my heart will never fade away.

Stuck there as a constant reminder of my pain.

Was that your intention?

Did you want me to suffer?

Please….oh please…end my suffering.

I can't go on like this.

I have to leave,and soon.

If i run, Would you follow?

Or would you just wait,

knowing i'd come back.

I try to stay away..

Your love sucks me in.

I know its all lies but i

always believe them.

I have no strength.

He has no mercy.

To him it's the perfect couple.

To me it's a nightmare

every relationship has turmoil hidden just under the surface... infact i think thats what a relationship is... caring enough for each other to get over or work thru that turmoil... being that understanding is what is really so hard to find... ppl have got lazy imo... they expect the problems to work themselves out and just give up when they dont... that saddens me :(...i had a wonderfully amazing g/f recently... but she constantly ran away when the water got murky.. if only she stayed by my side
