The Pain Of Talking

[Samccaleb]

We stopped talking today,
The words we say are just too painful.
We're killing each other with out raised voices,
And hurtful shouts.

We stopped talking last week,
The silence between us cuts just as deep.
I keep thinking you'll be the first to break,
But everyday that passes my hope dims a little more.

We stopped talking last year,
I've given up on you.
But I'm still alone.
My wounds are almost healed.

I saw you the other day,
Its been ten years since last we spoke,
You've moved on to someone new,
And your civil words brought,
Back the pain like a knife through the heart.

Its been a century since I saw you on the street,
I found someone new to love me more than I loved you,
And I can see the pain flash through your eyes,
I guess you never truly let me go.

moving... I really like it... and i have gone through this... right after i was married my ex-fiance came up and told me he loved me and he was sorry... it was a rather pathetic display of remorse..

Men can be so stupid sometimes....I honestly dont know where this one came from. I of course have never experienced anything like it but for some reason I tend to write about a lot of things I've never experienced....is it me or is that just a little odd?

yeah men are stupid but sometimes you are the one who has to decide if they are even worth the pain. but anyway that poem was great. i loved it.
