[bodytext] => Can you see me? Can you hear me?
Or am I invisible to you? I follow, wanting to be noticed And yet, you never do I've longed to hang around you For once to have a friend To have a place where I belong Where my status does not depend Maybe I don't say much But you never talk to me You despise that I try so hard to fit in Because my difference is all you see Can you see me? Can you hear me? Or are my accomplishments in the way? I've been put up on a pedestal And people listen to what I say Yet in my heart, I'm lonely Just another face in the crowd And though I'm being seen by all What have I done to be proud? People enjoy my company My place has been reserved But do they like me for who I am? Which friends do I truly deserve? Can you see me? Can you hear me? Please tell me that you can't I'm so ashamed of who I am My reputation I cannot recant I build up walls around myself So that you cannot get in To hide myself from harsh winds of words That burn me from within When I walk, I look down at my feet To you, my expression unclear So maybe you'll forget who I am And then I'll disappear Can you see me? Can you hear me? Not that I actually care Why should your opinion matter to me? To me, you're not even there Who are you to judge me? To say what I do is wrong? You think you're somehow better than me? And that I need you to belong? I prefer to mind my own business It's something you should try I feel a need to be alone Without your constant need to know why Can you see me? Can you hear me? This is your last chance Tomorrow morning, I won't be here You won't have a second glance You didn't see me when I asked You didn't even care I cried out to you so many times But to you, I wasn't there Maybe you wanted to help me I know I put up a fight But I know I'll never deserve you So it's time to say goodnight Can you see me? Can you hear me? Does it matter what I say? I know I've changed throughout the years And you like me better this way You were the one who stopped me That night I had planned to die You were the one who opened my eyes And showed me what I felt was a lie Do you understand? Are you listening? It shames me to know it's true I know I've caused you a lot of pain But I'll make it up you [comments] => 2 [counter] => 218 [topic] => 36 [informant] => TAL [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 5 [ratings] => 1 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => Suicide )

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. ©
