Why do I feel that I go unnoticed. I'm just another face in the crowd. I'm nothing special just one more dinner setting, one more person you thought about inviting, one more little sister that fell through the cracks. Maybe I'll just keep on wishing, and dreaming that one day I will actually like myself. I guess being comfortable in my own skin would be nice for a change. Because in reality I am noticed. Maybe too often and for the wrong reasons but still I am seen. I am called out on my flaws and my incapabilities. I've been told that I'm pretty but, I don't see it. I've been told that I'm funny but, I don't buy it. I've been told that I'm desired but, I don't believe it. You say that i'm one of a kind and I can't be replaced. But all I want to do is smack that smirk right off your face. Now maybe if I could see myself the way you do I wouldn't cry myself to sleep but wipe away the tears and just count sheep.
