Blood and Tears

With my blood filled screams I'm silent,
my salty tears sting me internally.
You left me tortured here and lying dead,
I never realized it before.
I didn't want to believe what people said,
Now I feel as though  I should've.
All you did was manipulate,
and now I think nothing of you.


There's a part of me that wants you back,
then there is the part that's healed.
All that remains are unanswered questions,
and a plea for sanity.
You could've just listened to the rules that were given,
we'd still be happy together.
Drenched in blood and tears I raise my head high,
and hope someday I'll hear you cry.


I prayed that someday I'd hear from you again,
my prayer wasn't answered.
Your the end of the tunnel,
and I'm slowly getting there.
My face blood stained and tear stricken,
lies what you left me with.
You deserve nothing,
I hope you'll always get less.


I can't describe how much hatred I have for you now,
only God knows.
But I think there's something deeper down hidden,
a tiny voice that still says, 'I love you'.
Laying here in blood and a tear stricken face,
I hope one day to hear you cry.
Someday I want to see you with blood and tears,
I could care less at the moment.


All you ever did was manipulate me,
how could I be so stupid and blind.
I guess that's what love does to you,
and now I'm sitting here crying through everything.
While you have created my blood and tears.....
I can't help but say this to you,
I don't want it to be true.
I still love you.

The poem is written with a skill pen. The poem is powerful. Your story brought me in with strong lines and you added more description and detail. I like the repetition and your ending. Heart is last to learn the disappointment. A excellent poem.

this poem is very nice to read, and it expresses much of pain and the emotions and feelings are deep enough to make it sound and clear... hope he comes back to wipe your tears and turn it to hearty smile!

I really like this, but are you sure your character is not feeling infatuation instead of love? My friend says that you can never hate anyone's faults when you love them. To him, infatuation means that need to love someone and not being able to let go of them. I like the strikethrough and the colors though that you used again to emphasize the feelings of the words.
