This is actually supposed to be sung to a tune I made up in my head as I wrote... and it's not even finished. But I wanted to share it, and this is the best place for it to go. So... Wattpad say hello to Notice! (thats the name of the poem thing)
___________________________________
It wasn’t too hard to notice,
But it was very hard to see
That nothing you were doing
Had anything to do with me…
Sometimes when I look back,
It doesn’t make me sad.
I realize how close we were
And what I thought we had.
Maybe you thought different.
Maybe I was wrong.
Eventually we made amends,
That’s why I wrote this song.
I couldn’t help but notice,
Whenever I saw you.
Nothing had really changed at all
You weren’t struggling to make it through.
I told myself, I didn’t care.
I lied and said, I’m fine.
I pretended like I didn’t need
You standing by my side.
Finally I broke.
All my strings were cut.
I curled up in the darkness
And I let myself shut…. Down..
Sharp.
Knife.
Pressing it to my skin.
Dark.
Night.
Leaving a cut so thin.
Some.
Times.
I let my thoughts sink in..
They’re not so bad, now and then.
But more often than not, they are.
That is why, when I cut,
I always leave a scar…
But there's too much pain
inside right now
and I need to let it out
some... how...
I cut and I bled
But I couldn’t forget.
I can’t let go.
There’s too much I still regret.
It’s wasn’t too hard to notice,
That what was left of me,
Was a shell of a person,
With not much else to be.
You say you know
What you did to me
Ads you say that you
Felt horribly.
And yet you didn’t
Do anything.
And I only got worse.
I got worse,
and I became, withdrawn
I got worse, and worse
I could barely hold on.
I can't even tell
you why...
I felt for you,
I talked to you.
But you looked right through me.
I wanted to
Be friends with you.
I guess you couldn’t see.
I didn’t care
That you didn’t spare,
My feelings, not a bit.
Well that’s a lie,
But still I tried.
I wanted you to be..
My friend.
The one..
That I could always count on
I wan..
ted us,
To be like we used to be.
I counted on you,
And I gave you my all..
You’d never let me fall.
(or so I thought)
barely 3 months later
you decided to had to leave
No notice, no reason,
only an I can't do this, just let me be .
You said you wanted to keep me safe
but all you do is hurt me
You cause me pain, and you don't care.
You don't need me, I see.
You made me a promise,
and I made one to you.
Then you broke yours,
so I broke mine too..
You promised you wouldn't leave me,
never, not again.
I promised I wouldn't hurt myself,
but, that was then.
And this is as far as I've gotten. I'm still working on it. I'll post the rest later, once I think of it and write it down.
UPDATE: Okay, so the part past where I left off the last time probably sounds like shit, but it was off the top of my head while I was fixing a couple of typos.
