You�re Killing Me

A Poem by Kitty

Ever since she showed up

You’ve changed.

You barely notice me at all anymore

And treat me like I’m nothing

When you do notice.

What happened to that guy;

That friendly, playful guy

With those naughty blue eyes?

What happened to those feelings

We once shared?

That hunger for each other’s embrace?

Why did you allow her

To change you like this?

I miss who you used to be.

Now, tonight,

You decide that I’m ‘good enough’

To provide you with some

Pleasure and entertainment.

You’ve been avoiding me

For so long now,

It broke my heart,

And yet I still longed for you,

Hoping that you’d still want me,

That you were still attracted to me.

I want so bad

To spend the night with you,

To fall asleep by your side,

Just to be with you.

But what happens in the morning?

Will you pretend that nothing happened

And act as though I don’t exist?

Will this night just be

Another scratch on your bedpost,

Another notch on your belt?

You’re killing me!

I don’t know what it is

That you want!

Is it her?

Is it me?

I wish you would decide

Because the pain of not knowing

Will be the death of me!
