I figured I'd post one on a lighter note, and give the anger a bit of a rest.

I feel for you, as no other
never hath the heart's
sweet song sung as loud,
nor tore so deeply as with now.
I see the face, and hear the voice
and within me the torrent rages,
slashing, striking.
And yet I hold the mask
never soften, not show
the inner happiness
that mere presence provides.
I dare not let the walls come down
and let the walls show
even a crack, lest I give away
that I would ever interfere...
I wish that I could express
the inner storm of emotion.
I know, however,
thine heart is another's
and to simply show
the edge of such feelings
would be to start the gap
between us, and in the end
destroy me more,
more then when I see you with another.

You have a new fan here, I LOVE your poems. They have a lyrical quality while still carrying such deep thoughts. They remind me a little of the poets Shelley and Keats. Not that I'm an experts on either of them, but from that time period, anyway.  
Just great work!

A lighter note, huh?
So what's the heavier note, then?  
Seriously, though, this is seriously good(repetition intended   ). You describe this horrible feeling so well here. Very well done!
