Never

Never said you had it easy,
But neither do I,
Yet you thought so and acted likewise,
While I stood metres away
Putting on a smile.

Never thought what I knew,
Was all there to the story, yet,
That's exactly what you did,
Without even bothering to think
There could be another side to it.

Never spent a day without crying
Yet you found it to be perfect, alluring,
Cause you never saw them,
All those emotions bottled up inside
Only burst out when you weren't looking.

Never did I complain of how you treated me,
But you thought I did,
Jealous of my world you started hating me,
Only if you knew how dark it was
Without light how hard it became to breathe.

Never have I told you these,
Cause you couldn't be bothered
To hear what I had to say,
You thought they were useless,
Found my life to be a child's play.

Never could I turn my pain into words,
How could I? When they were the ones
I could hold onto when everyone hides,
It's time I let them go
So others could do the same,
Instead of me alone.
