Does It Matter What Happened?

I feel alone,
ignored,
abandoned.

Does anyone see,
hear,
care,
appear to notice?

I feel mistreated,
used,
disrespected,
confused.

Is anyone paying attention to me,
listening to me,
hearing me out,
wondering about me?

Something just happened,
took place,
occurred,
went on without one remorseful face.

More concerned about other things.
Lies,
rumors,
things unknown; in disguise.

I feel unwanted,
left behind,
given up,
neglected.

Cant you see the fight,
internally,
physically,
spiritually and emotionally?

I'm hurt.
Full of pain,
discomfort,
shame.

Does it even matter what happened?
I feel the situation has been forgotten.

Comfort me,
reassure me,
hug me;
talk to me.

Tell me everything will be okay.
