What's the Point

I want
Later to be now
And
Now to be later
But I don't think
My opinion
Matters
Because if I fail
At doing the one thing
I'm good at
For the person
I care about the most
Then what's the
Point
If I can't help you
Make you
Smile
Then why am I still
Trying
I want to
Help
To make you
Smile
But you're
Shutting me out
So I feel like
I should just
Leave
Because I'm needy
So I don't like being
Ignored
But it's still happening
So why even stay
Maybe
It's because
I've convinced myself
That maybe
One day
You might let me
Listen
You might
Trust me
A little
I might get
To make you
Smile
