Pain

i deserve more than this
don't you realize
how much you mean to me?
how highly i have regarded you?
how important you are to me?
you must
don't you realize
how you've helped me
how you've hurt me
how you were THE ONE holding that thin string my life hung by in those hard times?
don't you realize
YOU KEPT ME ALIVE?

yet by your actions
unknowingly?
hurting.
i don't believe you know
or even consider the possibility

after all i have given
my secrets
my heart
my soul
this is what you give me?
I DESERVE MORE
