Tell Me....

Im hurting...my soul hurts.

Tell me that it's going to be okay
Tell me that it's going to blow over
like a Santa Ana wind, hot, burning
quick, leaving but a memory of
words pounded out at 2 in the morning.

I've been hurt before, I know this familiar
winding road. I've memorized the pebbles
I've kicked in fits of anger and irrational
tears. I know the side roads, I know the alley
ways that are shrouded in my own shadows
of regret.

You were my muse. You are my muse.
You inspire the words that flow.
You inspire the sleepless night, along
with the denial of the little letters put
together that completes the puzzle
of my smile.

I know this hurt. I know this....
tell me that we can go from here.
Tell me that this isn't the end,
that this is just a fork in the road
of what we call our fucked up life.

At times I found it a little wordy, but considering it's such a personal poem, and one that people can relate to so easily, in the end it worked well for the overall effect. Some parts in this are brilliant -

I loved the way you approached this it was new, and unique to you, but the pain in the end was the one everyone is familiar with.

I've been through heartaches many times and they never get easier... though we know when we watch others it is still hard to believe we'll get past it... you certainly spilled your guts and showed such deeply painful emotions. I feel for you.
