No One

center>No one hears my thoughts, so I suffer in silence, day after day

No one cares to wonder why I’m always alone, day after day
	
I’ve done so much, but my efforts were for naught, because day after day I suffer
	
I have few friends, and little love, no one to share my concerns or ideas with
	
No one to understand, no one to hold onto, no one to cry with, laugh with, or enjoy
	
Yet day after day I sit here, and hope, hope that things will change, always knowing 
they won’t
	
I had dreams for a future that has now come and gone, I am alone, have been all 
along
	
No one truly knows me, some just wish to own me, never caring how I really feel
