Trust Is Dead

Is it all inside my head?

Is trust really dead?

Why can't I believe what I used to believe so easily?

Because love is not easy for me.

In a sea full of people no one can see me.

Alone in a crowd while everyone is loud,

I think to myself can they even see me?

If I speak will they even listen?

No, I won't speak because spoken words are for those fake birds to sit on a shoulder and whisper to another.

Those others who pretend to be a friend, but never lend a hand, because they don't see you, they can't see that you are broken.

Broken and alone, looking at a phone because you fear you are invisible.

So in a room with no room you can find me in a corner.

Sitting alone staring at my phone.
