Trying to Feel my Pain

by Nicole M. - Gemini

Like a clam
I am
To you-

Always trying
To Pry
Me open-
Getting to the pearl
Or the meat-
What ever will satisfy 
Your hunger
at the time-

a child that will never accept no
telling me
You want to feel my pain-
So you reach in
and try to grasp me from the inside-

Your clamy hands
are met
With emptiness
   I figured you would try to pull something like this
     so I hid my pain
And now as you try to feel it 
through my heart
I make it stop
at your touch-
