The constant threats of breaking up <br />and not so tender words. <br />The feeling of being cheated on <br />brings on those invisible hurts. <br />People ask me why I look so sad <br />whenever I’m with you, <br />but they don’t realise <br />the unkind things you say and do. <br />They think our relationship <br />is almost heaven sent, <br />but I wonder if they realise <br />all those hurting thing you say <br />are really meant. <br /> <br /> <br />20 March 1986<br /><br />David Harris<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/invisible-hurts/
