WHAT DO YOU WANT FROM ME?
Tears stream down his face
As he lies alone at night
Sometimes he doesn't know why he cries
He just does
Sometimes he cries just because he can
At home, angry voices are all he hears
People never seem happy
He tries to hide in his room
He escapes into a world of literature
And for a little while he's someone else
He's living someone else's troubles and pains
He's living someone else's happiness and acheivements
Too soon for him, reality comes knocking on his door
He's called unsociable
He's told he doesn't want to be with his family
He thinks to himself
Why would I want to come out?
Why do you want me to come out?
You're just going to be angry
Like you always are
Why would I want to come out?
When I can escape your perpetually upset attitude
~
He wonders
What do you want from me?
