wanting needing
wanting to please and be pleased
needing to be needed...needing
acceptance admiration approval
a little girl inside
trying her best
its never enough
never good enough
reaching out a hand
no one takes it
so alone sometimes
so...........alone
do you understand
do you even care
did you know i had feelings....there
you didn't even know
you crushed them crushed
my heart cries
but no one hears
if no one sees the tears that fall
are there any tears at all?
i have an ache inside
so big i could reach in
hold it out to you in both hands
would you take it or walk away?
invisable
invisable to the world
a cry so deafening
it can't be heard
i have a corner
in which to sit
i will draw my world up around me
and sleep and sleep....and dream
