I have lost a lot of friends in the last few years & this is me questioning why. |
There is a sound no one can hear But for me, it's loud and clear Expectations don't come for free Disappointment sucks when you are me I hear it everywhere I go My ears prick up and then I know Silence is its own reward But way too loud when I'm ignored Rest assured I'm not deceased There would have been a press release My own funeral I'd attend My own eulogy I'd have penned Saying, “I'm not dead, just overlooked” My social life is undercooked I'll call you...you won't call me Check your diary if you're free I don't know why I'm on the nose Is anyone willing to disclose? Silence is the loudest sound Celibate rifles on the battleground Should I pretend that I don't care? Act as if I'm unaware? Pretending and acting aren't my thing Confrontation in full swing Bring it all to a head I may smell bad, but I ain't dead Whispers quietly deafen me I'm no longer your cup of tea Would be sad...got mad instead When I think about it, I see red You can all go and jump I'm lovelorn, but not a chump What could I gain...what is my hope? Of putting you under the microscope That quiet shrug, an act so smug Sweep me under your proverbial rug There I'll gather like a lump Slow down for the speed bump Deal with me or walk away Don't keep me near for a rainy day It's sad to think I've become a chore Looking back on how we were before For my part, I apologise For bringing about our demise I wish you all the very best For the time we had, I feel blessed I never meant to cause you pain One more link in the daisy chain |
