How Do You?

By Halocination

Topics: Poetry Source: AllPoetry Original source

How do you? Face the one you love Hold a conversation with yourself? Answer all your own questions? Give yourself different opinions? How do you face the one you love? When she turns away from you Says she's not good enough for you But means you're not the one for her When you can't hold her at night But she can hold you when she needs to How do you face her? How can you meet her eyes? When she doesn't trust you She trusts strangers on the street Because they are like her, She and they are both strangers to me How can I face you You've already judged me Why don't you just let me go Let me leave, if I'm so dirty So disgusting, decrepid and worthless All I wanted was to make you happy, But my best, my love... None of it is good enough for you I don't want another, I just want to be left alone Without your face to haunt meI hope she reads this and cries her eyes out...
