I Want Some Help
I hear their whispers
But they don't care.
They talk about me
Like I'm not there.
I see their glances
I lower my eyes.
I ignore their stares
And just despise.
They don't know me.
They shouldn't judge.
I don't know them.
I shouldn't hold a grudge.
If they knew me
They'd understand.
I want some help.
I need a hand.
I hurt inside
But they don't know.
I pretend I'm happy.
The pain doesn't show.
But all I want
Is a friend.
They come up to me
I shy from them.
And all I want
Is some help.
But I'll never get it.
By myself.
