Poem by me Lauralee Hensley title: When Someone You Love.

When someone you love keeps stabbing your very soul
does your spirit ever really climb out of that black hole?
When someone you love corrects everything you do or say,
do you find it hard to just get through another day?
When someone you love ignores you but not others on the internet
do the pieces of  time to reconnect with them ever reset?
When someone you love  hushes you everytime you try to speak
does you voice soon  become silently weak?
Someone I love you, please love me.
Someone I love you, why don't you see.
Someone I love you, but I feel empty.
Someone I love you, this is reality.
When someone you love sends darts with their eyes,
do you try to smile through or do you looked surprised?
When someone you love always walk away from you where ever you go
do you wonder if it's because for others they want to put on a show?
When someone you love seems so distant and away
do you wonder why you even bother to stay?
When someone you love won't let you hold them in a long embrace
do the memories of why you first loved them start to erase?
Someone I love you, please love me.
Someone I love you, why don't you see.
Someone I love you, but I feel empty.
Someone I love you, this is reality.
When someone you love only wants to sleep alone
does your heart start to turn to stone?
When someone you love says "It's not you, it's me,"
does it ring true as something to believe?
When someone you love doesn't want to hear how you feel
do you wonder if the love they once professed was ever real?
When someone you love packs their bag and walks out the door,
did you know that this is what a vow of committment had in store?
Someone I love you, please love me.
Someone I love you, why don't you see.
Someone I love you, but I feel empty.
Someone I love you, this is reality.
When someone you love is no longer in love with you
do you convince yourself they'll come back and your love will renew?
When someone you love seems so very  happy on their own
do you tell yourself that it was your own fault that the relationship is blown?
When someone you love hires an attorney
do you sob into your hands and fall onto your knees?
When someone you love gets everything they want and more
does your heart ache to hear them once again snore?
Someone I love you, please love me.
Someone I love you, why don't you see.
Someone I love you, but I feel empty.
Someone I love you, this is reality.
When someone isn't your someone again find a friend,
do a little crying on their shoulder and get around that hurtful bend.
When someone is out of your life for good
do something nice for yourself like you really should.
When someone isn't going to be nice to you anymore,
don't look back, just slam that haunting door.
When someone strong finally comes forth from inside of you,
remember to your own self always be kind and true.
Someone I loved you, now I love me.
Someone I loved you,  and now I can see.
Someone I loved you,  I'm no longer empty.
Someone I loved you, this is a new reality.
