Feel My Heartbeat Poem by Uche Nwanze

How can you sleep at night when I am hurting.
How can you carry on as if I don't exist.
How can you go on like you don't care.
How can you wear a smile on your face when I shed a million tears for you.
How can you be so far when I'm just a stone's throw away.
How can you be so taciturn when my heart yearns to hear your sweet voice.
How can you be so cold when I crave for your warmth.
How can you turn a blind eye that you can't see my love for you.
How can we be friends, yet you can't see the pain in my eyes.
How can you be so close yet you can't hear my heart cry out to you.
How can you pay deaf ears, when my heart beats for you.
