Poetry

I bite your tongue
At the things you shouldn't have said
And there were things
You shouldn't have done.
I wipe your tears away
As they fall from my eyes.
Your Pain is mine
Even though you don't want it like that
Unforgiving and sharp
It must be
I know your mind
Even when you try to hide it from me
I see behind your smile and your laughs
Everyone has walked away
But maybe its because you have let them go.
