center of the hurricane

only a few really can tell
though they try to help,
i know there's no way to fix this mess.


pain surrounds me
love all around me,
and i am the center of the hurricane.


i wish it all could stop
wipe my tears with a mop
but you don't know how to help.


you see the pain in my eyes
see me sit there and cry
but you don't seem to even care.


every day, many hearts break
every day, one of them is mine
honey dear, it's obvious you don't empathize,
i'm the one with tears in my eyes.

never mind that i'm filled with anguish and hurt
never mind that i cry unexpectedly
never mind that i love him.
