Dust In the Wind

My words flow through the room like dust in the wind
You ignore them and riding off what I said as only a temporary feeling
If only you knew how I cry at night
Wanting to be understood
Wanting you to hear what I am saying 
For you to take me seriously
But the words I say just flow away and are forgotten
Just like me one day forgotten
Nothing but a memory of only a few
But to the rest of the world
I am non existent
Just like how you see my feelings
Non existent
Unimportant because you think your not a part of the problem
But you are and i wish you could see it
But you can't 
And you never will
Because you don't listen 
And my words just end up being dust in the wind

I can relate to that. Read my poem "Feel My Pain", I think you might agree we could likely have an 8 cylinder connection! Nice job, I know I felt better getting it off my chest, hope you did too!
