Gone

I'm all alone
Completely isolated
From everything I've ever known

I know that no one will care
When I'm gone
No one noticed me, anyway.

It hurts, that I would be seen more 
When I'm dead and gone.
I'd be recognized, remembered
Only after I'm gone.

Why is it that you only heard me
When I wasn't around to say anything?

Why do we function this way,
Where a life doesn't matter
Until it's gone?

Why was my voice never heard
Until I wasn't around to speak?
Why will I only be seen
When I'm not around to see it?

It's funny how much you start to matter
When you're not there to witness it.
