Why Can't They See?

Why does this pain keep coming back?
Is this the way it’s always going to be?
Is there something I lack?
No longer do I want to be me!

I can’t help but stare
They are so pretty
Why can’t I be like that?
Why do I feel pity?

I need someone who understands
But yet that person I haven’t come to find
Nobody’s heart could bleed as much as mine
I’m running out of time

Soon my blood will be shed
No one would care
For they never see me
Alone, standing over there

I’m holding out my hand
Why is no one reaching to grasp?
I need these spaces filled
I want to last!

I can’t stare any longer
For I am blinded by tears
I wish I could be stronger
But I am filled with so many fears

See them smile
See them laugh
Why can’t I be like that?

I want to be happy
I want to be fun
But it’s not possible anymore, It’s all done

I am forever ceased
No longer can I return
All I needed was peace
But all I got was a burn

The little flame inside of me
Is now a fierce fire
Forever It will burn even though you can’t see
It will rise higher and higher

My life will never be the same
For this, your to blame
You lit that flame
And forever I am shamed

You ruined the loving person I once was
And now I’ll always live with hate
Never can I go back
No one can save me; it’s to late

Sometimes I think I’m dreaming
And that none of this was real
I wish it was all a lie
But then I wake up, and realize it was all real
