I know this might seem selfish but its how I really feel
I long for you to talk to me and tell me that you're real.
I feel like you don't need me
Like you've tossed me to the side,
I want to scream and throw a fit or curl up in a ball and cry.
We used to talk so much but now we sit in silence at each other's side.
I know that I love you but your love seems to hide.
Do I do things wrong to make you act the way you do?
I may never know if you keep acting like you do.
Am I finally too much?
Will you leave like all the rest?
I know it might not seem it but I really try my best.
I try to be gentle and I try to be wise but all I ever seem to do is mess up and then cry.
I'd try controlling what I feel but then it hurts too much.
I end up lashing out at you and yelling way too much.
I'm sorry for who I am even though I shouldn't be.
I've just given up on accepting who you make me out to be.
I never will be perfect or anything you say I am,
So please if you love me act like you give a damn.
I'm not saying that you hate me I'm just saying that I feel
Like you don't want to admit it but your love for me is no longer real.
