The truth is you don't love me.

And I can try to make it so-

But its always at my lowest when

I know that I'm alone.

The truth is you don't see me

Only your reflection in my eyes

The only thing you want to see

Is what's between my thighs

The truth is you don't hear me

Or you just choose not to listen

My feelings are too much to hold

You made that decision

The truth is you don't want me

You keep me in your closet

Not to cherish for special occasions

But to make sure no one saw it

The truth is you don't love me

You don't try to make it known

I wish that I could leave you

But is that worth being alone?

“I'm not sure why

I have the inexplainable urge

To tell everyone I come in contact with

That I'm dying”
