You are someone who sees everyone around them.
But that’s it.
You just see everything on the outside.
You never take the time to really see the person.
You don’t care about someone’s feelings or fears.
Just what they do or say.
Never what they want or think.
Only how they appear and who their friends are.
As I stand in front of you,
Tears continuously roll down my cheeks.
But you’re the one who shows no emotion.
You’re the only one who doesn’t care.
Every time I offer you a slight glimpse into my life.
It doesn’t matter.
That moment just gets pushed into the shadows.
You never blink when you see me at my worst.
You’re never around that long.
You’re the first one gone,
Every time I begin to fall apart.
I should just face it.
I’m not good enough for you.
I will never be good enough for you.
Why do I ever try to satisfy you?
Because every time I end up empty handed.
With but a single drop of self-confidence left.
Why do I take the time to care?
Care about your opinion on me.
Care about whatever crap you let spill out of that mouth about me.
You’ve never cared.
You never will.
I finally see that.
So, why should I?
