Emotionally Exhausted

Dont want to pour my heart out on this sheet
The only thing you seem to want from me
Is between my legs thighs and cheeks
Lips mouth and esophagus
And to you thats all I am worth
Why shed tears for one that doesnt have the slightest emotion to gather or muster up a  or a care
I Hate the fact that I love you
I Hate how affectionate I am towards you
I Hate that you neglect my emotions 
Set aside my feelings and remain in the state of oblivion to what it means to actually be there for me
Abuse my vulnerabilities
Cast aside my insecurities
Laugh at my tears
My Heart I still give and you act as if its not even there
I prayed to God tonight to please erase the feelings I have for you
Truly and Sincerely, I hope he does that for me
I Appreciate all of his blessings
Dont want to ask for too much
But this one...I really need

Hurting

What am I to him
Does he truly love me
Does this man that I call my man
Really care?
Is he truly faithful and loyal to me
As I am to him?
My brain goes into overload
Overthinking 
Its more than difficult to decipher my gut intuition and overanalization
Im so tired of being tired of being hurt
My fault is I love and feel deep
I wish that I could be cold
Therefore there would be no feelings to get hurt
I know I have the ability to be numb and indifferent
Ive done it before many a time
I know Im capable of doing it again
But my heart wont let me
And my mind is yelling 'shut that  off' 
Feeling alone
Don't know what to do or how to feel.....

Would You

I often ponder in my thoughts
If I was another chick would you spare more time
Would you be more kind
Would you post pictures of us to show me off or boast
Would you see texting or talking to me as a task or chore or would your heart beat with anticipation the moment you awake to connect with me anyway you could
Would you miss me so much that you automatically greet me with a huge kiss n a hug
Would you remember anniversary dates, take me out on dates and cherish moments shared with feelings of bliss
Would you want to meet my family 
Would you desire to engage in deep converations ; not just listening but actually hearing what I say
Would you consider my emotions and feelings considering my trust issues insecurities I came with ;luggage and baggage from past relationships and some that youve added to as my carry-on
Boarding this flight though I hate heights and flying, like falling in love
Crash n burn our land safely despite the turbulence that may occur...
If you were with another girl I think you would
Disturbing to think that way
What more can I say
It is what it is, I give 80 percent but you cant even meet me half way

Here I go again

I think I know now what you meant all those times in between kisses and hugs when you would say "I'ma  you up" 
You meant my heart
