Forgotten

No one would care if I disappeared
No one would care if I wasn't here
No one sees the tears I cry
No one sees that I'm dying inside


I blend into the background
I don't stand out
Easily forgotten
Another face in the crowd


I matter to no one
No one thinks about me
I have made no difference
No one sees me


I don't want pity
I want to be loved
I want my life to have meaning
I feel so alone
