#itoldyou
I told you before
you are lovely
You said something like
no never not me
Well then maybe
I will take a photo
so you can know
how by this man's eyes
You are seen
A masterpiece of composition
Perfect like beautiful days
A song that maybe only
I will be humming
in all the loveliest
of lovely ways
Beauty is held
by the beholder
So that all might not
have to agree
Lovely is held
in a separate place
So that heartstrings
entwined believe
I will tell you again
You are lovely
Maybe you'll think
Then so you say
We will not need
to look at a photo
Yet you will know
You are truly lovely
In such a beautiful way

I told you that I didn't like
the way you talked to me.
You told me to grow up
and not be so sensitive.
I told my teacher what was going on,
why I couldn't focus on my test.
She said excuses aren't welcome here.
She said grow up and do your best.
I told my mom what you told me.
She said I heard you wrong.
She said there's no way you would say that.
She said grow up and go along.
I told so many people...
But nobody would care to listen...
I sit here with an empty bottle...
...No one hears the voice of children.
