Hey World

Hey world ……
I need some recognition
To be seen as me
For what I’m worth.

To be able to get away
From the feelings that plague me
day by day
That I’m unseen and all alone
Worth nothing more than a mere hallo.

Do my opinions count?
Does anyone care?
Will anyone doubt?
When they see my emotions bare

Without a cloak of pure disguise
I’m nothing, broken, just a dream
Of a soul who had so much to give
Of a soul who now will never be seen.
