A Tear Upon My Cheek

A tear may press upon my cheek But no one sees it fall, A face and name of nothingness Hide the glory of it all, But I just a girl stand beside a wall Just to be protected by the shade? And yet instead I remain the same Hidden by others I slowly fade, But what confidence is given to me To hear my own subtle cry, To leave me later wondering Was it you or was it I? Now I stand, right here today With a heart complicated like a web, That no one ever understands Why its mind it there was led, To then try and bring mere happiness Another obstacle is formed, To try and be someone like me A life would be transformed, But to hear from someone That your whole life seems devoted to, Could make you feel like they just today Were sometime thinking about you, So I sit and wait for those To watch and see my smile, But no one ever looks towards me They think that I’m not worthwhile, And if I step outside this shadow Wrapped around myself, Will I be called out upon? Or tossed aside upon a shelf? If I sit and cry to think That I am not doing well, Will anyone ever stop and ask ‘I wonder if she needs help?’ Yet if no one really ever cares If you are feeling depressed, And there’s other things inside there life More important to be stressed, So a face and name of nothingness Hide the glory of it all, And still tomorrow a tear will press upon my cheek But no one will ever see it fall.
