Your Killing Me Slowly


Your Killing Me Slowly

My love for you had always been true , 
But I'm dying within me you kill me , 
Your words haunt my will being , 

I writ in my journal about the what if's 
What you once meant to my heart , 
Day , night Oh how I cry out your pains  
That you left for me to carry , 

I give you light of my true love for you  
But all you gave me is the pouring rain , 
It seems that is your love , 
The only love you know is pain and so much  
Shame , 

When I dream I see your cold eyes looking back  
At me , your love is everlasting pain that over 
Shadow me killing me with what you call love , 
Casting spills on my soul day and night , 

You don't want to let go of the only heart you  
Know that loved you ; the face of love makes you 
Scared so you gave me your fears ,with much tears, 
Your love is like the black night , 

You can see above above the sky black night I cry , 
You hold me captive a free to set me free ; 
I feel I cannot breath ; your killing me slowly don't  
You see what you are doing to me ? 

You can hear my cry's in my life ,  
You see the rain of much pain , 
The clouds of my life you gave me , 
I cry out love don't hurt and you cry back Yes it does ! 
We dance in the rain of your blood shed pains you can 
Not face so you gave them to me , 

I feel I'm on  my last breath ; 
The cry of death is you that touched me  
The death not has not yet killed me .

To all my readers you may see that their are grammar errors in my old writings, but these writing are from the 90's ,2000's. I truly didn't think anyone was readying my work . so I just started writing out what I felt and made my pains a story and poems . I had re post these poems and stories all over the internet and I keep them also in file so no one can ever say my work is theirs . I have kept my work as they are just for others to see where it was I started my writing at . The pains are so real not even a game ,The life I had lived I would never wish upon no one . I like to say to all who are taking the steps for change in their life congratulations to the new open doors God bless you . You may have seen my photos on the internet and my writings on Poetry.com and poem hunter etc. you may have seen the hate that others have given to me about my work and my beauty of who I am . But as you can see I will never let the haters Stop me from doing what I love . So I say the same to all of you write your own words and let your heart speak to all your readers . I hope you can understand why I haven't made changes in my work at less not the old ones . My old work are left as they are for me to always remember where it all came from . God bless to all who reads . Lilly Emery /Judy Emery
