You pointed out my flaws
As if I'm not aware of them
Laugh at me when I'm down
Pinning me hard to this muddy ground
My whole life
I wanted you to be happy
I don't know about you
Maybe this makes you happy
I'm crawling, in this muddy ground
Crying, hurting, waiting
For a sound, a hand, a smile
From you
But you didn't come
I've fallen and stood up
For quite a hundred times
Yet you only show up
When I have the spotlight
This isn't a stage drama
You don't have to show off your tears
When people are watching you
And applauding you
There aren't behind the scenes
Because if there were
You could've been part of it
You can't
After some time
I learned one thing
I've been holding on to people
Who have already let me go
I'm trying to stop writing sad poems
Especially if it's because of you
But you always make me want to
Because this is my only way
I see you everyday
Waving like a homecoming queen
At people you probably think
Are on your side
I can't make a statement about you
Not even the bad ones
I don't wanna use my mouth
To say your name
Because my heart's too broken
To even think of you
But here I am
Writing this
Not for you
But about you
