I Don't Want To Know How You Feel Poem by Kevin Patrick

I Don't Want To Know How You Feel

Rating: 5.0

I tried a million times to speak up and reach out
but you just pulled away and left me with no doubt
its best to leave alone and leave your pain to rest
cause I could never win and always lose your test



So I don't want to know how you feel
Cause I have nothing left to deal
no I don't really want to know how you feel
I'm tired of being tied to this wheel


every-time I tried to care you turned that to a dare
then you burned my heart and that didn't seem fair
compassion left me broke, and gave me angers debts
in the end what's a friend but postcards of our regrets


So I don't want to know how you feel
Cause I have nothing left to deal
no I don't really want to know how you feel
there's nothing in my soul left to heal



its 2 am and I think of messaging you right now
the screen is blank cause it doesn't matter anyhow
The miles of silence are what keep us safe from us
Pretending that you cared is worse then the deepest cuts



So I don't want to know how you feel
Cause I have nothing left to deal
no I don't really want to know how you feel
I'm just another voice in you sadness reel

This is a profound verse, Kevin. The emotion, so visceral, is something every person has experienced at some point. Once experienced, it is never forgotten. Brilliant verse!
