why do I like you?

you call me up

and talk about

you you you

I listen and smile

because I love hearing about you

I text you everyday

but you never ask how I'm doing

but that's fine!

I care about you

I see you at school

and wait for you to ask me something

anything

but it never comes

my smile gets smaller

my tears grow larger

I stop calling

but you don't notice

still I follow you at school

waiting for you to notice me

now I don't text

but you don't care

I don't go to school

I just lay in bed and cry

but you don't see me

so I stop all together

and you don't even know why

its been a few weeks

and still I'm asking why I feel for it

I'll admit, it was a convincing lie

but am I that dumb?

will I amount to anything?

and will I just be a shell

a half

a useless person

waiting for you to notice me

thinking that it will save me

when i know it wont
