Lies are surrounding me,
Everywhere I turn,
Everywhere I look.
Pain is followed,
Like a stab to the chest.
What have I done to deserve this pain?
Why would you do this to me?
You might not realize it,
Might not comprehend it,
But this pain,
These tears,
Are because of you.
I have done nothing wrong to you,
Yet I get treated this way.
I have been what I can for you,
Yet, it doesn’t seem like enough.
Why would you do this to me,
After I have done nothing?
You make me feel unwanted,
You make me feel unloved,
Like I’m some gremlin from the bowels of the earth,
Yet I am not.
I am nothing but me,
Nothing but truthful,
Yet this is how you make me feel.
The river of tears I have shed because of you,
Because of how you make me feel,
Are not for show,
But are real.
I have given to you,
I have taken nothing.
You have not tried,
You do not care.
This is how you make me feel.
This is what I cannot bare.
