It Hurts Inside

by Ten Feet Tall   Aug 18, 2004


I don't know what I can say
Or what I can do
To get this through your head
Into your mind and into you

I don't want this to be over
Or for us be apart
But I need some space from you
To mend my broken heart

Right now my heart is in pieces
Broken on the hardwood floor
Because of what you told me
That night outside my door

You told me about her before
Told me what she means to you
But talking this time really hurt
Because I told you what to do

"Just muster up all your courage
Get the nerve and ask her out
She won't say no to you
This I have no doubt."

But inside I prayed
That she would say no
I hate her so much
But love you too much to know

You've been here with me forever
When I'm happy and sad
You're my best friend in the world
And never ever get mad

That's why I love you so much
And that's why it hurts
To know that same love is not shared
Only wasted with your flirts

Please right now just let me be
I need time away from you
To sort through my feelings
My thoughts and what to do

    You did a great job here in describing some strongly felt, conflicting emotions toward this person.

    BTW, I really admire your artistry also, as in your profile picture.
    Cheers, --Lydia

    Hey, this poem is really great. I emailed it to my friend from school right off this site and I added my own little message and it really made my friend realize what he had done to me. When I just read the email he had in reply it really made me feel good and there arent too many times anymore because of his girlfriend that I get emails like that from him. I told his girlfriend now to just go ask him out because I was tired of hearing him say oh my gosh I like Steph so much and I was tired of hearinf her say oh my gosh I love Gabby but I am so scared of asking him out and she asked why I told her to go ask him out and I said because I know he will say yes and then I wont hear about it anymore. Well after that it like ruinned mine and Gabbys friendship. I liked Gabby a lot at the time so it really hurt me. This poem was excelent and I happen to come across it at a good time. Nice work. Cant wait to read more. ~Sunshine~
