Believe Me
'Believe me'
It's the disbelief that I most hate
Being told that I exaggerate
When life's already so unfair
I know most people hardly care
Whether it's pain I share or my lack of sleep
Most my woes; don't share I keep
Finally I think you understand
Till you dismiss me once more with a flick of your hand
Won't you try, just pretend to believe
When I share with you my heart on sleeve
Not many I love know real me
Yet to 'strangers' online I at last feel free
It's true no one will share my blues
Unless they walk a mile in my shoes
'Believe me' ~ by Victoria Payne
