Fend For Myself

Are you there? Can you listen?
Or will you shut me out
pretend I don’t exsist?
As you have
every other time
Am I here? Do you see me?
Or am I once again invisible?
Shoved in the back of your mind
You never understood
You never really cared
You never saw who I was

And I sit here, crying
trying to make you see
As I walk out the door
you still don’t understand
That I’m never coming back
You chose her over me
Distracted by her spell
You left me to fend for myself

I wonder if there is a chance
I’d like it to work
but it never will
I’m gone, do you notice?
My spirit and cheer have vanished
but you’ll never know
cuz you don’t care
Or do you?
Suddenly in this battle
you put up a fight
wanting me all to your own
selfishness glows
love has vanished
you want me just to say you were there

I had hoped it would work out
Perhaps your heart would melt
but it’s over, be gone
I’m scarred, are you happy?
You’ll never see what your missing
Good-bye
