My Own Black Hole
Lost and Mute, love betrayed
I’m crying from the darkness
Don’t leave me here Alone
I’m begging for you to see me
Why can’t you see me?
I’m screaming, “I love you!!”
But you don’t hear me
I yell “I just want your love and attention!!” But my words do not travel to your ears
Pleading “Please! Aren’t I important? We’re married! Why aren’t you hearing me?”
I’m mute to you
I see you talking to them, you’re happy, you have each other.
But I’m alone in the darkness
I just want to share my life with you
But you won’t take it
You just shun the darkness
It doesn’t exist to you
But it is very real to me
It consumes me
This darkness
Soon I will be gone
Swallowed whole
Lost forever within this cold, cruel chasim
