You cannot hear me even when I am silentA Poem by Myrtice J. EdwardsThis poem is about a cheating spouseYou cannot hear me even when I am silent You cannot hear my unreleased tears You have no idea what lie in the deepest part of my heart Your anger becomes free and my suffering forever shackled I long to be free of my suffering but no one understands me Disappointment seems enlarged yet my words I dare not utter For it may cause a storm I grit my teeth to keep the peace While the water floods my issues I compartmentalize my issues and sweep them under a rug and hopefully no one will move this shabby old piece of rug Else I’ll have to face the hurricane again Why do I continue to love someone whose actions and reactions to what love is, is not reciprocal? You don’t love me anymore You’re not sorry for hurting me and running my life You’re just sorry you got caught is all You stay out late at night yet you have a million excuses why you do what you do How did I end up loving someone who don’t love me? You tell me I am insecure and need some counseling, for what? To try and convince me that your lies are really true? Damn, what ever happen to you? Is your self-esteem so low that you can’t believe I love you so? I guess you will never know because you cannot hear me when I am silent or my unreleased tears and what lies in the deepest part of my heart.
