A Loud Silence
I sit here.
Right beside you
But I feel
Like I might as well be here by myself
Silence between us
It feels like we’re worlds apart
I can hear you
Trying to sleep
Yet I sit here
Restless and empty
Longing for a connection
That now feels like its lost
Silent crying
Staring over where you lay
What did I do wrong?
Maybe I shouldn’t have stayed..
I hate this feeling.
Like you don’t care.
Say one but do another
Mr hippocrate don’t say you care
You’re confusing me
Is it one or another?
Just sit down
Just pick a damn chair!
Why can’t we just talk?
It doesn’t even feel like you’re here.
You want something to mad about?
Look in the ing mirror
I can’t stand this
Why don’t you care
Im pouring my heart out
And you won’t even sit next to me on the chair
You never try anymore
You’re always so high off your ass
And lately it’s always an “I don’t know” or “sure”
Give me a straight answer
What”s going on in your head?
Just talk to me for once
I need you, just listen
Or at least act like you are
I don’t know how to do this anymore
I’m talking to the ing wall.
I’m just going to leave now
There was no point to this at all
