What It's Like

Every single day it's a struggle.

Seems like it's always one after another.

Some days are great,

but others...not so much.

I can't stand to sit here and wait

when I know that I deserve to be loved.

You claimed that you could see,

but you don't really know what it's like to be me.

 

Never chosen, always left behind.

After a while that begins to mess with my mind. 

Sometimes I'm all here,

but others I can barely even stand.

I wish someone could wipe away my tears

without saying that if I cry, I'm not a man.

I look fine, but not everything's as it seems.

You don't really know what it's like to be me.

 

I know it. You're hurting too,

but I've proven many times that I'll be there for you.

Someday we'll talk it out,

but right now life's getting in the way.

I know you know what I'm talking about,

but you pretend that you have nothing to say.

You were the one I hoped would set me free,

but then again...you don't really know what it's like to be me.

 

 

Author's Notes/Comments: 

I just wrote what came to my heart today. It's speaking about many who have come and gone from my life, never choosing me. As much as it sucks...it's okay. Damn...I wish someone would though.
