Your Empty Ocean

My heart breaks
and my knees give way
Tears stream down my face
caused by the hurtful words
that you say
I'm a hard woman to please
How would you know the difference
Pleasing has never been
your forte
You know me well
not that well
My heart sinks 
in your empty ocean
I'm drowning in the silence
of words 
that are never spoken
I drift along
through your rapid swells
Grasping at the safety lines
I thought I knew well
Will I stay adrift
or will I wash ashore
You already have my heart
I can't give you anymore
