Little Things

I broke my mirror today and realized
My reflection still looks the same

I drew with pen on my skin
But the ink didn't burn

I built a tower by blocks
But the blocks kept falling off

Painted my nails
One always seemed to smudge

I am always tired but
I will never be tired of you

Hate my own voice
But I'll never get tired of yours

You said she left you
But you know I never would

I am the most heartless person
But the kindest also

You're always so strong
While I'm weak as ever

Stay up till 4 am
Wake up at 5 am

But all I want is to hear
Your three words

Whispered under your breath
With a gulp in your throat

Saddest thing is
I never will

Saddest thing is every time I say
I'm used to it

You say I'm not alone
But here I am

3 am and no one is willing
To help me get through the night

So you say I'm not alone
So why do I feel so lonely

Want to know a secret
Look into my eyes

Tell me what you see
No one looks that deep
