It's Not Depression

I forgot what it's like to laugh 
To laugh and be in a moment 
I forgot what it's like to smile 
And be filled with genuine happiness

Is it just me or do you notice it?
My eyes dont shine as birght no more
My skin has lost it's beauty 
And can't recall how it looked before

No I'm not depressed 
And I refuse to believe I am 
I've just been going through some things 
And no one ever tries to understand 

How dare you try to judge me!?
And say I lack attention
Hey, maybe I do 
But I'm unbothered by your opinion
