Dumb or Dumber?

I am dumb. 
Foolishness stays over me and coats my throat till I cant be me. 
Tears threatening to leak. 
I bite my tongue, only for the words to stop in my throat.. Because maybe no one cares..? 
Maybe that "can" change..? Knowing well enough that it wont.. 
And never will. 
Standing my ground ,hoping to be felt 
But never is. 
To stop from being me to being insecure to speak.
Spent so long being "okay" that I don't know if "am" okay or... not?
How foolish
Knowing it isn't
Only for me to "betray" them
Either way,
Am selfish.
And will "always" be.. in their eyes
For them to judge
And never to judge.

Experimented?

They remember me? 
Do they..?
I tried to talk, to do everything 
I always listened, did
Either way ,got forgotten
lose my spark
my voice to speak
it faded
how insecure i became
Once the popular, now the insecure 
Am I the last choice?
the last option,
Always.
Is it my fault?
I become introverted, at what cost?
From this so called "experiment" they did on us...lockdown made me feel unreal, like i dont matter
Be honest , if i disappeared would there be at least 15 people out there looking?
Haha, how "funny"
Which reminds me ,how funny can one be to lose it spark
altogether
For who knows what I want to speak.
Who knows what's in my "heart"?
Even I don't. 
How will they..?
Truly funny.
