The lovely and talented Ritu of butIsmileanyway.com has set us all off on Loveuary. I for one am excited with the task. What is love? We shall find out as the month goes on.
Today is day 25 of Loveuary and my prompt is Emotion, hard raw emotion. It’s thin line between love and hate! I have revamped a poem I wrote back in 2012.
WHY, WHY, WHY
This is me here I stand,
do you want my heart.
Take it and crush it in your hand.
Words don’t fit they beat me down
All loops and bloops you watch me drown.
In my own blood you see me thrash,
Get your mates lay bets as to when I’d crash!
Beat me, slap me with my words
I’ve taped my mouth so my screams cannot be heard.
Cut me carve me it is nothing I have not done before .
I’m lost and wrecked on unused emotion’s shore.
Abuse me use me sate your need
Then throw me off like an unwanted weed.
See my heart you have rent it in two
I pull it out and wear it on my sleeve for you .
Fuck me suck me dry
You just don’t look or see the need within my eye.
There is not much more that I can do
You miss hear and miss understand all that I do.
I stand here screaming silently
Bleeding need and blood constantly.
Hit me kick me just don’t look at my face,
No matter how hard I have tried I cannot win this race.
Here it comes the huge and vicious mouth
I lost can’t take any more I fall and tumble, stumble south.
Damn you damn you what can I do
To get respect or love from you.
Love okay it’s too late
But kindness could not compensate
