Get Through to You

Just sitting here feeling so blue

I really just want to get thro to you

The feelings I tell you arent just for show

Its everything I really need you to know

Without communication we will never grow

You mean the world to me even tho you feel it doesn't show

It surely kills me to know I hurt you inside

I never mean for my words to run throughout you burning you alive

All I ever want for you is to strive

Can I do this and swallow my pride

I do my best to just keep you by my side

Just know that it kills me inside but still I'll try

Its difficult sometimes to communicate with the people we love..it's like they don't understand your words.

Sometimes actions speak louder. Maybe try to be thankful for little things they do and voice it outloud. Most people love to know you are proud of them.

Think of yourself, build a life for you so you won't feel alone if they are silent.

Nice write.

You can sense the struggle and inner turmoil in this thought provoking poem.
