NeverEverNever

By cyan9

You never ever kissed me;
so I would blister.
You only ever held my hand
To push me down,
To fuck me when I bled.

You never ever cared for me;
So I would walk through torture alone,
You only ever said you loved me
When I gave you everything,
When I became my alter ego.

You always said that I was stone cold;
I had good reason to be so.
You always said that I let you down,
Constantly afraid of lies that burn;
But you only ever made me hurt.

You never ever thought I could love you;
I am not incapable of feelings.
You only ever respected me
When I lied to my own face,
When I gave myself away.

You never ever stood by me;
Telling me I was worthless.
If you only ever knew how much I cared for you,
You might have let me in;
There would have been no need for this.

    Thank you for the compliments (both Philla and Cutting_for_Freedom). I am afraid the pun is lost on me, but if you want to see more like that, I have put a piece up called The Falling Syndrome, and will be putting a few more up, if this is what people lik

    ... e. I also have a site www.cyan9.com, that contains my more modern work, but is lighter and less appropriate to what I think you are looking for in a poem.
