As I stand here in pain from
the way you have torn me to shreds,
I continue to rip myself apart.
I find that once I've been hurt,
it happens over and over again. For what?
Love? How selfish, everything seems
to be about love, always not
to close, not to fast, & my way.
I see the gaps now in our love,
they are just as plain as holes
on my face. So I stand here in anguish
causing myself more torment than I need.
All in the name of love

wow this a very deep poem that you have written here. excellent job with this. a feeling that I have known.. all too well. I am sure there are many that can relate to this feeling. love isn't ever easy. sometimes its downright not fair. we always have a tendency to be really hard on ourselves no matter what.
good luck
