I don't know how to tell you that you've hurt me,

Without hurting you,

I don't want to cause drama,

That's the last thing that I want to do,

But when you ask me how I'm feeling,

I really hope you understand,

That you can't push me away,

And expect me to take it like a man,

I let you know how I felt,

Because I was happier then,

Then you let my heart melt,

I bet you'll do it again,

So I won't open up as easy,

You'll have to earn that trust,

I thought you earned it before,

But I see that was a bust.

​

I'm messing up my flow,

Just to capture what you said,

So I can feel a bit more tired,

As I'm sitting in my bed,

I really want to tell you,

Exactly how I feel,

But my mouth says a lot of words,

Even I don't know what's real,

So I'll sit there in silence,

As you tell me about your day,

I'll say I'm doing fine,

To get the problem out of the way.

​

If ever you told the truth,

Please tell it to me now,

If I showed you this poem,

How much would you allow?

p.s. this was a quick poem, it's going to be very messy and I understand that.
