Pain Poem by Maxie De Kock

The words you speak tear at my heart
Unleashing a devestating blow to my whole being
The deeds you perform unknowngly
Slowly eating at me from inside

I love you with all that's in me
Yet that still doesn't seem to be enough
What more can I give to make you believe
To make you see your killing me

I blow out my last breath
Watch it disappear in the breeze
The same way your affection vanished
With the sun in the dead of night

Night time always seems like a comfort
A time I could show my true emotions
Tears could fall without notice
And a new plastered on smile came with the breaking of each new dawn.

I cannot hold on for much longer
My pleas for help left unanswered
Can you not see the pain within me
Or do you simply just choose to ignore it...
