Who Am I?

by Sarah Vanhoose   Feb 27, 2008


Who am I?
The one who stands in the shadows
Of the broken dreams.
The one who hides her pain
The pain that she doesn't want anyone to see.

Who am I?
The one who sits alone
With the screams that no one hears.
The one who tries to stay strong,
And hold back all her tears.

Who am I?
The one who puts her heart out,
Only to have them break it.
The one who speaks her mind,
Only to have her words mistaken.

Who am I?
The one who sits and listens,
To what she is supposed to be.
The one who looks in a mirror,
And hates what she sees.

Who am I?
The one who doesn't matter,
And that no one ever sees.
The one who hates who she is,
And hates what they want her to be.

Who am I?
The one who longs to be seen,
And wants to be heard.
The one who felt invisible,
Until she became yours.

Who am I?
The one who doesn't cry anymore,
'Cause she's the one you see.
The one who's loved by you -- and that's all I ever wanted to be.
