Hold up

To everyone

Held up
We’re a rope worn to a thread
Holding my head
so close
so far away
I wanted you to stay
You’re too blind
To see you’re breaking the bind
And everyday I go unnoticed
You’re losing focus
no time for me
I wish I could see
But i can’t make myself break
It’s not my choice to make
It’s yours
Take some time
Take some more
Give it back
It’s a fact
You’re not there anymore
Not really
you see
You’re a virtual existence that I used to believe
You’re a life that I lived but I lived to leave
No fucks given?
No fucks received
My eyes are sore
My mind is torn
What for?
There is no more
No way
no how
Okay
what now
I’m safe ....
for now
Take a bow
For you’ve succeeded
I’ve been cheated
My heart too revealed
And my mind too concealed
It’s not fair
I should have been
Could have been
More  aware
So you care?
Ha!
If only you had been there!
That’s right! U weren’t even there!
U never saw the look on my face
U never felt my heart race
Not a trace
Not one smile
Not one tear
I could be your voice to hear
You’d have to make the choice
Make it
or break it
or kill it
or fake it
Fuck it
Ill always fear
But I’m here
And That’s more than you can say!
