Love Poem: Sentimental Amnesty

Sentimental Amnesty

you can say i love you,
a million times and one.
but theres nothing you can say to me,
that will change the things you've done.
it pains me to reject you,
it really truly does.
but i'm just trying to protect myself,
from what already was.
babe you know i care for you,
so much that it hurts to say - 
loving you is way too stressful.
such a costly price to pay,
for every doleful tear i shed,
so arduous to admit.
for every callous word you said,
but id have to say its been worth it.
