When?

When does the hurt stop?
I really have to know …
The pain is overwhelming
And I can’t stand it any longer
When will my heart open?
So I can let someone, anyone in
I’m tired of cringing at the thought
And I’m leery of being alone.
When does skepticism stop?
The negative thoughts of men
And their paper ideals spin
Through my closed mind
No matter how unfair
When does this love go away?
I carry it still in my heart
Waiting I suppose for you
To realize what a fool you’ve been
Wanting you to come back
When does the embarrassment leave?
I know my friends and family
Watch me with those expecting eyes
Waiting for me to breakdown
I feel the stares and I hate it
When can I go back to being me?
And be relaxed enough to smile
Not have an “us” memory
I want to have fun again
I want to not think of you
When will I be free?
I want to be able to hear a song
Without my emotions rising
I want to go out somewhere
Without seeing your ghost follow me
When will I be able to forgive?
I want to move on from this.
I want to have closure and live again.
I want to just be happy.
I want to just be.

Time.........sometimes moves so slowly, doesn't it?   I applaud this write as you've captured the emotions completely.  My compliments.
