Deep inside I hurt <br />And now he wants me back. <br />He tries hard to win <br />But love for him I lack. <br /> <br />Lies are hard for me, <br />For lying's not my style. <br />Though small it may seem, <br />It stays for quite a while. <br /> <br />He just won't give up <br />And try to be my friend. <br />If he can't let go, <br />Our friendship, too, will end. <br /> <br />Thinking of himself <br />As the world goes around <br />Seeking for my praise <br />But there's none to be found.<br /><br />Jodie Phillips<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/give-up-1989/
