All I wanted,
was for someone to care,
All I wanted,
Was for someone to love me, and for it to be real,
All I wanted,
Was a hug,
Someone to listen,
Someone to see, the tears I hold back,
That just yearns to fall,
the smiles I show on display,
That just wants to end the show,
And hope somebody knows,
Not to wonder "if"
If I departed from this cruel world,
If I disappeared,
would anyone notice,
And if so,
Would they even shed a tear,
When they could even hear,
My silent screams for help,
Even in my fear,
No-one stopped by,
No voices,
No hand,
No-one that even cared to understand,
No-one cared to stand by my side,
All I wanted,
Was my thoughts to ease,
And not for me to wish to flea,
They unfold in a timeless motion,
Drifts like a dream,
Moves like time itself,
they don't stop,
Just run in circles,
Like a fun game,
Laughing at my pain,
The pain they laugh at everyday,
the pain that adds on everyday,
Every minute,
Every second,
they don't waste time,
even through my rhymes,
They still find me every time,
at night they get louder,
I learned to smile,
To walk away,
And look okay,
To shut my mouth and say "Im fine",
For my pillow to carry my tears,
For my arms to wrap around a lifeless plush,
Because I feel alone,
But not fully,
Alone with my thoughts,
I want hugs,
I love hugs,
I need a hug,
Arms wrapping around me,
Not quick,
Long and meaningful,
like nothing else matters,
but I cant help but wonder,
If I disappear from this life,
That I have been gifted,
Would I be gifted peace,
Would anyone stop,
Or care,
Or would I vanish in the air,
Would they reread my texts,
Or move on to the next,
Like a stranger passing by,
A masked face no-one knew,
I try to smile,
I try to laugh,
It only works on the outside,
Cause every joke,
Every fake "Im fine",
Just feels like I'm running out of time,
Im tired of feeling alone,
And always on my own,
Like I'm invisible,
In a crowded elevator,
Like I bring nothing but gloom,
But all I ask is for someone real,
Someone who listens to how I feel,
Who listens,
Who stays,
Who wont pretend,
Not me just being a phase,
But i'm still here,
I stayed,
But if I didn't,
Would they notice,
Would it matter,
Fading in silence,
Silent screams,
An unseen dark,
Wondering if I ever really left a mark,
Or even a single spark.
