Hurting Poem by Marrissia Holliday

You’re love has worn a beaten path across my heart..
My heart a welcome mat for the pain..
I fell for your lies with each twinkle of your eyes..
Sitting here listening to the rain fall,
You’re standing on my front porch
Screaming my name,
Saying that you love me
All your words don’t mean a thing
This time the door won’t..
You pound and pound
But I've built my walls
Aint nothing bringing them down...
No baby nothings gonna help you now
My arms aint there to hold you
I close my eyes; pull my knees to my chest
And take a deep breath..
This is hurting,
It’s what I gotta do..
I'll make it through
Goodbyes cut like razors in my skin..
Loving you felt like a sin,
Maybe that’s why I kept holding on,
But now I'm letting go...
Shoulda known you’d just hurt me...
Shoulda known your break my heart...
Shattered it into pieces to many to be made new...
The tears they may fall
But the pain will get me through,
I’m done with you
