Bleed

Stab me slow, watch me bleed

is it my pain that you need

you stabbed me in the back

and then walked away

and here I stand still bleeding today

I don`t know why you hurt me so

I don` know why you turned so cold

you closed all doors,you return my mail

do you enjoy putting me through hell

Do you really believe those lies

you didn`t even ask me,i was surprised

do you really know me,i don`t think you do

if you did you know I`d never be untrue...

Simplicity is rarely applied appropriately without coming off as emotionally touchy feelly or sappy in love poems. You struck a nice balance here. Good work.

Also I didn't know that Simply Red did a cover of this... compares well to the R&B original.

Nice! Nobody reps seal that much anymore. I love musical references in poetry, it rings my bell! :)

Its the worst when you get stabbed in the back by someone you care about. But its good to express those emotions in poetry.

It's never easy to understand why someone would stab someone in the back...People like that can never be trusted. Your words are emotional and heartfelt Ron.
