I don't have the heart, to tell you goodbye, <br />though I live in fear, each day of my life. <br /> <br />I can't continue this way, I'd much rather die, <br />yet I don't have the courage, to commit suicide. <br /> <br />You ignore the tears, that each night I cry, <br />for you really don't care, or even ask why. <br /> <br />Is my sorrow invisible, or only a surprise, <br />when all I do is give, yet you never compromise? <br /> <br />I've heard it all before, your' words of deciept and lies. <br /> <br />Don't pretend that you care, you've never taken the time, <br />to try and understand, the feelings that I hide. <br /> <br />Just leave me alone, and I will be just fine, <br />I don't need your' pity, for I've always been fine,<br /><br />Ruth warren<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/i-can-t-live-this-way/
