Unrequited Love Aug 2014
What if for once something went right?

Like he liked me back.

My parents could be proud of me for just a little bit.

My brother could be sober.

I could actually become a dancer.

Or I passed my last science test.

At this point I'd settle for a good night sleep.

Or just a reason to smile.

But it seems that is far to much to ask for in this life.
If just one thing could go my way I'd be so happy

some days are
easier than others
i can fake a smile
and deal with life
but not today

ripping myself open
just to feel again
seems like the only
option i have left

sometimes kind words
just aren't enough to get me by
im trying to be happy
i want to be happy

my happiness lies
where i cannot find it
i'm supposed to be strong
people look up to me
and all i can do
is let them down

They say eyes are the key to your soul,
So what do you see in me?
Is it the masked happiness that I don,
Or do you see me for who I am?

Can you see the retched soul living inside,
Everyday hiding in a merry disguise?
Do you see the pain in my soul,
The weight that is placed upon myself?

If you do see the unhappiness,
Do you even care?
Please someone through their sadness,
I dare.
