Always Trying

This is something I wrote because I want to be noticed by a band that helped me when I was in a bad place. Thanks to IM5, I’ve been singing more, dancing more, and drawing more and I want to make them something to show how thankful I am, but in order to make it, I need them to answer a question. 4/5 have answered but I still need Dalton to answer. But yeah…this is how I feel when I try to be noticed by them

The shadow girl, quiet and invisible, sits it the darkness…alone

Time and time again, she has tried to break free from the darkness, but the people she tries to reach won’t see her struggling

All she wants is to be seen

All of her life, she has tried her hardest to be acknowledged by the people she admires

The people who gave her strength when she was falling

The people who reminded her of her passions and desires

And yet through all of her attempts, it’s as if she hasn’t tried at all

She holds onto a saying that gives her hope

If I’m not for myself, then who will be for me?

And if I am only for myself, then what am I?

And if not now, when?

Engraved on a necklace, she wears it as a reminder, to keep trying and that, hopefully one day, she will be seen

I am the shadow girl and the shadow girl is me
