killing me softly

It's been a while.
You might be wondering why,
I'm not there even when you cry.
I tried to hold you gently.
Now it's killing me softly.
But undoubtedly,
I still write for you lovingly.
I tried to treat you the gentle way.
But I have anger issues, what can I say?
Now I have to pretend we never met,
And carefully set,
The clocks that tick,
And make me lovesick.
My love will never end.
I'll keep writing even if the pens bend.
With the hope that one day, to you, I can send.
