So you can't find me? well that's nothing new... for the past 11 years, I've been invisible to you.. I'm not really a walking tower oblivious to pain but a troublesome teenager with nothing to gain My spirit now rests no more torture for me There are no rivers of my tears as far as one can see So you think I ran away.. at least you hope that's the case you've probably searched the nearest houses at a superior pace but I'll stop your searching for this teenager here You think couldn't have gotten far you're right, is pretty near I'm a good 200 feet from all signs of life On my decision I was so sure I didn't need to think twice Maybe I didn't let you know how I felt so what? Who cares? All I had left as an option was a world's sake to spare I got no encouragements to keep my life right afraid to disappoint thee again I slipped off in the night The place that I'm at I've been there before Not a proper burial excuse me I'm poor No blood was spilled on my behalf I decided not to breathe motivation I lacked You're piecing together my clues I'll give you one more bit This place's only light by night would be moonlit The clues may be vague but they're supposed to be this making it easier for me to tease thee So what I did isn't funny all those petty things I did I appeared to be a menace as long as I lived. I took away your obligation to forgive me that's one mind to ease I demanded for far too much love like an extremely ugly disease You thought I fluffed my crime off like I simply didn't care I'd have you know I was more than ashamed at each place I go, no matter where But no one could really see that underneath my disguise There was more guilt than should be behind my feeling-less eyes After you forced my depression into hiding I put every other thing in the closet my good qualities abiding congratulations, I'm not perfect wow, that's one suicide gone to waste You should see my surprise from the look upon your face Inside I laughed at all your attempts to put me away I believe I covered that wouldn't you say? this all seems so comical like some sort of dream but at least I served my purpose and you finally see what I mean too bad it took an action that placed beyond extreme I guessed that you didn't want me around that's sure how you made it seem maybe you didn't notice but there's lots I regret things you still remember and a few you didn't know about yet.. I'm pretty sure after this poem you'll know how I felt how many nights spent crying the sorrows that could melt my heart has a few things It would like to admit go ahead, sit down this'll take a Lil bit did I tell you how I'm responsible for more than one suicide the time I hurt somebody so badly the poor thing sure had cried it was back a few years in the 8th grade when I was semi-popular my peers I obeyed I put myself before a kid named David I told him flat out how he was below me and that's what life's about I told him that with me he stood no chance I didn't even have the decency to spare a second glance sound's rather petty like nothing too great my words were the final straw my apologies came too late
