Heard
Today was a good day
And that takes a lot for me to say
You're different but
You'll never admit it
So I say it aloud in your stead
What is happening in you head
I have not a clue
But I have seen you be happy
If only for a few
Moments fleeting past
As solid as the rain
Hoping for them to last
But dampened by the pain
They ache so loudly
Falling so hard
Feeling like a failure
But not at all what you are
Just longing for someone
to whom you can spill out the words
Like a melancholy song
That just needs to be heard
