It hurts when you treat me like I'm not good enough,
it kills when you tell me.
Is it so hard to be supportive?
To care, to be loving?
Why can't it just be a normal foundation,
full of happy memories,
containing irrevocable and unconditional love?
Why can't it be like a family?
The way it used to be-
undeniably different from now.
But, please-
with all the damage and scars you have engrained in me,
I think you deserve to take a bow.
But remember to open up the curtains so everyone can see,
just the kind of cold monster that you aren't afraid
to show me.

Thank you so much; I really appreciate it :) I was trying to make the structure almost parallel the meaning in a way by starting off slow and sad and finishing off strong because in those types of bring-me--down-situations, it is key to remain strong. Thanks again for taking the time to read (:

So very, very powerful! My favorite is the ending "But, please- with all the damage and scars you have engrained in me, I think you deserve to take a bow. But remember to open up the curtains so everyone can see, just the kind of cold monster that you aren't afraid to show me." This is an absolutely wonderful piece! Keep up the great work!

&quot;Maybe on the outside I&#039;m not your typical guy, but up here I am.&quot;

that is one of the most amazing poems i've read... it shoes kind of a sweet innocence mixed with a strong oppinion without making you sound needy...  i really enjoyed it
