Words Fail

I Am A Person Too

Why is my word not good enough?

Why must you come up with excuses for him?

Why do you trust the words from a man you don't even know, over mine?

Is it because of me?

Do you not trust me?

Is this your bias showing through?

Why is my word not good enough?

Do you think I'd lie to you?

That I get some kind of sick enjoyment from this?

That suffering is funny to me?

What do you think of me?

You know what. 

Don't answer that.

I already understand, completely, how you feel about me.

I don't know what I did to deserve this.

For my words to go in one ear and out the other.

Or why when I speak no one listens.

I don't know what I did to deserve this.

To feel unwanted,

Unheard,

Unappreciated,

Deceived,

And just so goddamn unlucky. 

I'm not just someone for you talk to.

I have words too.

And I have feelings.

I am a person.

I just don't see, how you don't get that.
