Hurt

Yesterday was a passionate night, 

l tasted the rawness in you. 

Imprinted on my body is your love, 

all in black and blue. 

You apologized for what happened.. 

you admitted you didn't mean it. 

I was wondering how you couldn't 

see the hurt beneath the skin. 

I wish you could see my torn heart... 

stabbed everytime you did something rash. 

But impulsive you, 

could care no less. 

Life so far has been a roller-coaster ride, 

with perilous ups and downs. 

Ups with you are fun for sure, 

Its the downs that break me down. 

Are we for real, I thought... 

When did I learn to endure so much?

Is love the glue, or its something else, 

Why am I with you? 

I thought that the harm is done, 

and you can hurt me no more. 

How much longer before I give up, 

that's something I am not sure! 

You made my heart bleed out, 

you made my soul feel hollow. 

Am just left with the thought... 

How much more!?
