Love Poem: Rejection

Rejection

Beaten, broken, 
rejected, torn open, 
I'm sick of it all these things
What one might call a simple 
fling.

Scarred and alone,
My saddness is my new home,
Tearing me apart.
Why are things only good in 
the start?

I want to smile
Its been a while
I'm never seen with one 
anymore
Each time I get up again I'm 
pushed to the floor.

Whether its day or night,
There's always a fight,
One that shreds my heart,
My fault again for something I 
didn't start

A smile, a tear,
A mask, some fear,
Will it ever end?
Oh why oh why can't I just be 
happy again?
