Hurt

Somehow you creep in when I least expect it
isn't it ironic
how deep the wound still is
how easy it is to bring to the surface

hurt wells up inside me
in my hot tears as they flow from my face
i'm angry at you
for reasons unknown

maybe you're not perfect
i've known of my own imperfection for sometime
but it comes as an unwelcome suprise now
that i'm peeling away your layers to discover the vulnerable parts of you

how selfish you can be sometimes
i feel so hidden away
so unloved
so ignored

maybe being ignored is the worst punishment next to dying
being left to hide your tears
while simultaneously displaying them
for anyone who would dare to care

Somehow the hurt remains in my heart
maybe we're just not right for each other
or is this some silly psychological game that i'm waging against myself again
god, when will this nightmare end?

hurt clouds my judgment, my eyes, my heart
the deep, dirty mucus covers me in its vile
protect me, hold me, make me feel whole again
i want a boyfriend not an everything

my strength is still present
yet somehow its dissipating bit by bit
as the debris floods my face
and the hurt settles until it fills my whole body
