Attention

by pebbles 89   Aug 28, 2006


Alone, that's how I feel alone with nobody to turn to.
Can't you see that your daughter is hurting and needs help.
I want more love not presents.
I want a hug and a kiss good-night.
Can't you see that,
are you that blinded by your own selfish needs that you can't see mine.
What do I have to do to get your attention
Do drugs, have sex, or get drunk.
Do you want me to be another teen that gets pregnant and doesn't know who the father is
Or do you want me to starve myself or cut myself to pieces that you won't notice me when you see me.
What do I have to do to get your attention
Do you want me to keep hiding my tears behind my smiles
If I was my sister will you give me the same attention you give her
Will you treat me the same way you treated her
What do I have to do to get your attention
If I keep pleasing you and giving you the things you want
Will you notice me then
What do I have to do to get your attention
