Give up is what I hear
It's all that rings in my head
No one cares
No matter how much I do
Or how much I show
I can't call for help
I'm being selfish
But if I don't call for help
I'm yelled at
Oversleeping
Undereating
No emotional support
I'm alone once again
Scared to open my mouth
Lungs shake without drug use
Skin looks so smooth
Wouldn't mind putting a few marks in it
Living a meaningless life
Can't help anyone
Terrified people think I only want attentionYou changed
Something changed about you
Not just your hair
But something inside
You treat me worse
When I'm trying my best
I want you to think I care
Because I truly do when I shouldn't
You leave me in times of need
But can use words that show empathy
It's a fool's trap
I feel safe with you
But part of me knows you will be leaving soon
Leaving emotionally, not even physically
You showed care but I see you don't anymore
I miss the old you
I missed talking late into the night
Maybe not even sleeping at all
But now?
I try too hard to continue dead conversations
Then blame myself for being boring
Why?
Because I want to feel like I mean something to you
Like I'm not alone
Like I'm not worthless anymore
But you don't understand
And I doubt you care to
I really want to just
Give up
