And how many ways can I pour out my heart?
Can I pour it out in words?
In song?
In deed?
Do I shout it? Whisper it? Write it on the wall?
Does it matter?
Unrequited love leaves a woman
Shipwrecked…
All of the goals…
All of the plans…
Wondering what went wrong…
Wondering if there’s anything left…
Any remnant to be saved?
One is external…
One is internal…
And there’s nothing in the middle to
Translate…
I didn’t know I could feel so alone
When there’s another person in my bed.
The less I feel heard,
The more I scream,
And the more I am blocked off….
I don’t know what to do.
I don’t know what to say.
How can you study the sweetest of words,
But have none for me?
How can I feel any more
Rejected
By the only one
I want?
You’ve told me before that you wouldn’t fight for this,
And I know.
You won’t fight for me.
Three years is a long time to
Fight
A
One-sided
Battle.
I’m exhausted.
Unloved.
And unappreciated.
I can’t give what I don’t have
And I’ve poured out everything
In me.
How many ways can I
Pour
Out
My
Heart?
