I thought if I talked louder they would pay attention, so I did.

I thought if I was more dramatic that I would win the bid

to their heart and their affection.

But all it was show me my reflection. 

A girl who lies, who pretends.

A girl who bends 

over backwards to fulfill their every need, in hopes of getting the same. 

But I guess they thought my attempts were too tame.

And now I sit alone,

waiting by my phone.
