The Pain

The pain is all I feel The pain inflicted by you You act as if you don't care Almost as if you enjoy hurting me The pain is unbearable But I take it all in Without a word of complaint In my mind I scream, but you do not hear the shouts from my soul Deep within Trying to force their way out of me But I cannot let it happen So I endure the pain as you throw rocks at me and I just close my eyes It isn't necessarily the physical pain Although that is killing me too More like the mental anguish you make me feel As you show me how I am nothing to you It hurts so bad To see the person I once cared for just turn their back towards me And leave me all alone inside Without a single friend in the world So I endure the pain as you throw those rocks As you throw them at me And they not only leave imprints on my skin They imprint on my heart also And you tore that up too I gave it to you so willingly And now you toss it about like a toy You stomp on it and tear it into the smallest of pieces But you do not even care about what you are doing to me And no matter how hard I try The pain just keeps on coming Floods of it pour through me And it hurts so bad But it will not stop Not until you realize what you are doing to me is wrong Since I never did anything at all to hurt or upset you And not until you say that you're sorry and you love me Because thats all that matters I would forgive you and come back to you Because after all The physical pain will someday stop and the scars will fade But the hurt you are doing to my heart and soul will stay with me forever.
