Walking on eggshells, <br />And whispering your words, <br />I'm not fragile, nor broken, <br />Just dying from hurts. <br /> <br />If you think that I'm through, <br />Than I've misguided you, <br />For I'm just beginning, <br />I've got a long way to go <br /> <br />Secrets I told, <br />And lies that I created, <br />Were never as bad, <br />As all the days that I hated, <br />And whenever I wept, <br />You acted so cold, <br />So you wonder why now, <br />I'm so uncontrolled <br /> <br />Hours spent pining away. <br />Tears dropp day by day <br />It's a story almost done, <br />And a tale almost finished, <br />And you're still wondering why, <br />Your role was diminished, <br /> <br />I'm not over these days, <br />And I'm not through with myself, <br />This is certainly no phase, <br />You're only hurting yourself <br /> <br />I'm finished with these lies <br />And I'm not pretending anymore, <br />The pain that you caused me, <br />I'll just learn to ignore <br /> <br />You're nothing to me, <br />You can hurt me no more, <br />I've been totally set free <br />It's you that I feel for! !<br /><br />Jessica Millsaps<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/walking-on-eggshells/
