Chapter 73: I get it

☆Faith☆ (A Series Of Poems)Words: 1631

I get it

I do

Some days aren't the best for me too

And I don't know if you're hurting

So I can't really judge

But when I'm hurt

And I'm bleeding

I can't help but feel like I'm no one to you

And I can try to complain

But you don't even check

Somehow you're only available

When it's you in distress

And maybe it's all in my head

Maybe nothing is against me

Maybe it's just the chemical imbalance

telling me I'm worth nothing

Because now when I'm in distress

You don't even bother

My house almost burned

And you didn't care to answer

And of course you can always be busy

That, I can respect

But everything is getting overwhelming

And you're leaving me alone

For dead

And I can be apologetic

I can say sorry all I want

So I'm sorry

I'm sorry I'm no longer number 1

I'm sorry my education is no longer my priority

I'm sorry I'm no longer smart

I'm sorry I have to ask for answers

And feel bad for asking when you never respond

And I'm sorry if this feels like I'm guilt-tripping

That's not what I'm trying to do

I just feel lonely and lost and hopeless

As my grade slowly falls down

And I want to talk but I can't

I can't seem to trust you when all you do is talk

And I'm glad you have interests

I'm glad you're branching out

I tried to

But I can't

I'm sorry I'm not who you thought I was

I know I'm so overwhelming

I know I'm not bubbly like her

That I'm confusing

And make no sense

Not even my therapist truly knows the extent

And I won't even publish this

Because you won't even read it

You don't care

It's the repeat of 5 years ago

At my very worst

Everyone leaves me

I get it

I know

I'm not worth saving.
