Conscience reaction to a low blow

He's so blind and cannot see
friends muggle his thoughts
while my heart bleeds

I'm sinking down here, grasping for life
reaching out with both hands
dropping the knife

Playing no games and baring it all
I spewed out my thoughts
just to hear them fall

How come he can't tell? Why can't he just know?
I've tried opening my heart
blow after blow

The pain so intense, tear after tear
exposing my feelings
letting go of my fear

When I open my mouth I create a sore
but if I keep it shut
it pisses him off more

Time and time again he turns me away
he says it's my choice
but he doesn't stay

Nothing I say will change his perceived intention
he'll just remember the pain
and all the things I forgot to mention

There's no image so desperate that I can portray
to open his heart
and chase the doubt away

In truth I'd do anything in short of my life
to gain his forgiveness
and remain his wife

Wow

your expressing the hurt and anger, sadness, regret of a failed relationship. susieq

Wow

Your right.. but the way you perceived this situation as past tense really cut me. My denial about this situation is something that seems to be obvious to even an outsider. Wow. Thanks for your feedback.

It's not my place to say, but maybe it's time to move on. Find someone worthy of your love, and stop dwelling on the past. You're only hurting yourself more by not letting go of a relationship that has done nothing but cause you pain.
I hope you find peace and happiness in your life, my friend...and everything wonderful that you deserve to enjoy.
Best wishes, TJ
