Notice Me

Just because I say one thing,
Doesn't mean it means another,
It doesn't mean you can make fun of me,
And laugh,

You made me cry that night,
Not for the first time,
But this time was different,
Because you actually noticed,

I'm glad you saw,
Saw that I was upset,
Came to my rescue,
And said some sweet stuff,

It will still hurt though,
For a few days at least,
I just wish you hadn't said it,
Then I wouldn't feel this sadness inside.
