Unspoken
© 2017 by NakitiaRyhai
Sometimes late at night
I just can't bear to sleep
Instead, I'm burning up with words
That I will never speak.
And I'm too tired to reason out
The fault you find in me
So I collect my thoughts and build a wall
That you will never see.
I've been down this road before
I'm not surprised anymore.
The way you make me feel
Utterly invisible.
But I'm the fool for caring
When it only makes me miserable.
So let's go our separate ways
You're just another stranger
I met today...
It's not like I choose to be
The one standing here alone.
I admit I've grown used to it
Even when I sit at home.
I wish I could stop caring
And numb this feeling for a while.
But the pain's never more cruel
Then when I turn and see you smile.
I've shed these tears before
I'm not surprised anymore.
The way you make me feel
Utterly invisible.
But I'm the fool for caring
When it only makes me miserable.
So let's go our separate ways
You're just another stranger
I met today...
