Poetry: For you

internal pain, weighing down my heart
My heavy, heavy heart
Why do I love him so?
What's so great about him?
What do I see?
Why can't I stop loving him?
Why can't I stop falling for him?
If only you can control your heart

He's caused me grief
Agony
Ache
Misery
No happiness, not yet
But will it ever come?

Yes?
No?

I know the truth
The right answer
I can't lie
Can't contradict myself
The answer,
It's no
Simply no

I have hope though
But is it enough?
To go on?
Can I persevere through this?
All this pain he's caused me?
This love that can't be so?
No.
Just plain no.
Simply no.

It's always no, isn't it?
No this
No that
No here
No there
No everywhere
Why is it no?
Why can't I find happiness with this, with you
And have the answer be yes?
Just this once?
These question, looming in my head
But again, all the answers are no
No

Simply no...
