Just me

What do people see from me?
I thought I knew what people see
But I was wrong.
The words the thoughts are crashing down
But I'm just me.
The wind the chaos whipping around me -
I hold my hands close to my body -
I fall on my knees, the wind taking over me.
But what do they want from me?
I hold as strong as I can;
My strength is giving away.
I can't win this war inside me
But. What. Do. They want. From. Me?
I'm tired
I'm tired and ready to be done.
But then I realized no one cared.
No one was there.
People. Leave. Me.
What do I say.
I'm. Just. Me.

The sun, the warmth, the Love
They left me.
As a child I thought,
"How could this be?"

No matter my strength
No matter my loyalty
People left me,
Again.
What do they want from me?
They don't.
I lay my head down
I lay at rest.
The chaos always whips around me
I get scratched by thee.
Don't they know?
I'm just me.
Just me.
