Notice me

You enter the bathroom while I shower

Just a fragile barrier between us,

I want you to notice me

Notice this water turn salty.

I left the curtain open a crack, see?

But you don't

Notice me

Notice my tears

Notice my pain,

Or notice me.

You never notice my smiles

How fake they are.

I try to make you see

I'm not really

Happy.

Notice my tears

Notice my pain

Notice my lies,

Notice me.

Maybe you'll notice my absence

The time I spend alone

Thinking,

Wishing,

You'll notice me.

Maybe you'll notice my scars,

This pain I put myself through

Symbolic to the pain you've put me through.

Notice my scars

Notice my tears

Notice my pain

Notice my lies,

Notice me

But you notice her

She has always got your attention

For better or worse

You notice her

Her scars

Her tears

Her pain

Why are things the way they are?

Shouldn't we be equall?

What has she done that I haven't?

Aren't I in more pain?

But you don't, just like always,

You've never noticed my scars

My tears

My pain

My lies.

Is it me?

Should I do more?

What else can I do?

I can't understand how you don't notice me.
