Walk Away

An old poem I wrote in 2002, that came to mind today.

Walk Away
2002

what am I
don't my feelings matter
oh yes I know you say they do
but how about you show it

who am I
that you can't respect me
that you don't protect me
why can't you just show it

bitter is the feeling
that my tears are falling
falling on an empty little lie
can't you see it

see the pain that haunts me
want to stay and hold me
but you can look then walk away
don't you feel it

why don't you feel it
feel it, see it, show it
feel that I need you
yet you walk away

don't walk away

why am I so stupid
why does it all matter
why can't I just
smile and walk away...
