I shouldn't have expected you to love me.
Or anything more or less.
I shouldn't have been so slient and weak.
Leaving room for you.
Now you live beneath my skin,
and every touch triggers a sensation in my stomach.
Building
up
into
my
throat.
And I want to
c
r
y
all over again.
Just for you.
To prove I'm sorry.
I shouldn't have tried to make you fall.
I wished you'd trip and join me on the ground..
your knees mudded,
your breath heavy,
as you kissed me.
And we'd fall together.
Things don't go, they just go away.
I'm sorry for all the things I said to you in silence.
I'm scrubbing away at my skin
but still the blood stains a ruby memory.
And its okay,
I'm fine with you being so alive inside me.

WOW!! I love how poetry always says the things I can't put in to words for myself. Amazing.

I have to agree with the other two.  This is a good write and it is enjoyable.

Wow!
Another great one from you!!
I really really really love this one! So much.
Especially the first few lines and,
"Im sorry for all the things I said to you in silence."
Excellent job, and going in my library.

Just because someone doesn't love you the way you want them to, doesn't mean they don't love you with all they have.
