Poem 18 - Hush

Hush
Be quiet
I don't want to hear it anymore
"You're perfect... you're awesome..."
I know that well.
From your lips though,
It stings me
It hurts
Don't you see?
Can't you tell?
You are for me,
What I'm not for you.
I need for you to stop
You say these things
That have no meaning
No purpose
If I can't have you
If you'll never be mine
The words you emit
Are like icy bullets
They strike my heart
I feel only pain
Loneliness
So please
Hush
Say no more
Do me just that.
