The pain you inflict upon me,
Behind your eyes are hollow pools,
Laughter spills from your lips that’s so cruel.

You beat me into a pleading submission,
When will you stop, what will make you listen?
That I am just a mortal being,
Who laughs and cries and can be hurt by feelings.

But you you’re just a chemical imbalance,
Against you I possess no resistance,
Your soul is black and you lack a heart,
The only certain thing is that you’ll show up and play your part.

What made you choose me to latch onto?
How much pain are you willing to put me through,
You reach right into me and rattle my bones,
Make me feel like I am truly alone.

You paint my insides morbid and black,
Taking away what you can never give back,
Every time I think you’ve finally had enough,
You come back to make my life that little more rough.

I am to you just a work of art,
Seeing what my insides look like torn apart,
Strewn across your canvas of pain,
On my soul you are an un- shiftable stain.

I am lost for words... that has to be one of the best poems I have ever read. I know EXACTLY what you are feeling, and you described it so well... probably the best way it can be described or can be written.

Everytime I read one of your poems ~ it takes my breath away. And once again you did it. You have such a strong and vivid way to state your case so to speak. Keep up the good work! I loved it.
