What's this feeling
Because it seems I've been torn apart
 Oct 2014
Gwen Johnson
Always looking for a place to hide
Always looking for a way to run
Always looking to someplace where I'm not

Enjoy the silence
She said in a whisper
As the room kept getting dimmer
Enjoy the silence
They said as they fought her
Enjoy the silence
She said when she got hurt
Enjoy the silence
She cried in her pillow
Enjoy the silence
She repeated as the silent noise
Consumed her

Have you heard the broken words?
Of a happy girl
On a sad day
Have you read the letters
Almost Illegible
And tear stained
Addressed to the past
And even though she could have a bright future she only looks back
Have you heard the cries too familiar you can't sleep
Have you realized where you put your energy?

You don't find scars on my skin
So you think I'm just fine
You don't see in my eyes that I cried all night
But some of us don't wear our scars like clothing
Some show scars in poetry written in the dark
Where they feel the rawest emotion
And I'm one of them
I bleed my emotion into poetry
And hope you can make sense of it more than I can
So someone can you tell me
How am I feeling?

Can you see me bleeding?
Can you see me pleading?
Lying on the floor,
begging you for no more.
Can you see me bruising?
This battle I am loosing,
it's not supposed to end this way,
yet all i have to say is....
*i'm fine

Question.
Does friendship disappear overnight?
Do feelings drop off randomly?
If they do, do you really fake it,
Hoping it could come back?

Question.
Do relationships do the same?
Can you lose two years in two days?
And when you do,
Do you fake it hoping for a miracle?

Question.
Is there a script for men to follow?
Whether friend or lover,
You speak the same words,
Hoping, praying I don't notice the lines,
Used on me before?

Question.
Do you find me so unintelligent,
That you believe that I,
the girl with the wise eyes,
And the beautiful mind,
Could not see the patterns proven to me before?

Question.
Do you think so little of me,
That you could so casually use,
My worst fear against me?

Statement.
If you wanted this to be easy for me,
Don't quote my ex word for word.
Don't insult my relationship with you,
And do not insult my relationship with God.

Statement.
Don't ever come back,
Because you (I cannot say good) sir,
You are a ******* of the worst degree.
"During this past week my feelings for you as a friend have gone away and I tried to fake it to see if I could feel it but it didn't work." Right. Ok, and follow up with this line a couple minutes later, "P.s. there was a point where I almost fell for you" And if that wasn't bad, this was how the conversation started just moments before. Me: "I'm sorry for the way I've been acting, I'm just a little bit worried, that's all." Him: "Oh I see. Nothing to be worried all is fine." Me: "I'm glad..." I'm through.
