Forgotten Words

Introduction

I see a life

A life I wish

One of only dreams 

One I cannot dismiss.

A life of friendship

And one of kind

All I ask,

Is for someone to oblige.

These people around me

I'm one of many

One of many, people again

The people don't see

What's on the inside. 

It's the inside that matters.

What matters is what we can't see.

What they see:

A broken piece

Of the beautiful picture

Of love and of peace.

The beginning of a story

Of cold and alone

A girl on her own,

Is a girl of unspoken potential.

I know I'm not perfect

But I know what is true.

No one is perfect,

And neither are you.

I don't care that you're great.

I don't care that you're cool.

I need respect

Just like you.

I know you can't see

What's inside.

But that does not mean

That it is not there.

I have feelings.

Those of scared

And of sad and of loneliness

They've not always been there.

My problems aren't all mine.

They can be yours too,

If they are your fault,

You need to help too.

I'm not invisible.

I know that I'm here,

I you can see me,

And I know you can hear.

My broken pieces,

Aren't all my fault.

Just because my life isn't as bad as yours,

Doesn't mean it isn't miserable.

You can't break me

And expect me not to care.
