Look At Me

Look at me 
even if its not with ur eyes 
turn ur body to me 
 even if its not genuine 
make me think you care 
caress my hair 
even if its tightly wrapped around ur fingers 
promise to keep holding me 
and ill hide my feelings 
like the marks i secretly tell u to leave
feel me 
while i move through the regret 
of telling u to come back
pay attention  and
 ill say i love it 
because its the only way u notice
why don't u just look
i just want to be seen
