#WritcoPoemPrompt97

Standing at the edge of reality and disbelief,
A broken soul shivers deep,
Was torn and shattered on the reef,
My mind wonders what is wrong with me?
I feel I can't ask anyone for advice,
There's no one I have to tell,
I tell my love how I'm feeling but his reply is never nice,
So bottled up inside is where I keep my pain inside my empty shell.
All I want is a little attention and a smile every now and then,
A feeling of being loved, one I know from just his grin,
A warm feeling when I am with him showing love or just a hint,
Just a hug and embrace that shows me it's not the end.
Is this too much to ask of someone you have loved for many years,
I don't think it is but I can help but feel our end is drawing near,
But I am not stupid, why does he not tell me its over after years,
Only a coward won't put an end to a lonely soul when they cry so many tears.
I've cried, I've pleaded and poured out my soul just so you would know,
How much I long for you and your affection but you only leave me cold,
My soul is empty, my hearts in pain, it's all gotten so old,
This once young loving spirit is now older and alone.
I'm so over these games you been playing for too long,
My life is growing too near it's end to be here without your love alone,
Maybe it's for the best to part our ways and be on my own,
I can't pretend that I'm not your "most important thing ", it hurts to the bone,
I'd rather be lonely alone with me than with you, I think I will just go and be on my own.
