Erase Me

I’m tired of crying my eyes out,

Of feeling like I’ve upset someone

By just being myself:

Clingy,

Passionate,

Emotional,

Oversensitive.

My eyes, as well as confidence in my personality,

Have run dry

But I’m sure they will still find some way to cry.

For years, my biggest weapon has been stabbing the pencil against the paper,

Easing the pain with words on lined sheets

But I am tired of reading my own tears,

Feeling like nobody cares enough to listen to them.

Then I stop.

I remember that people do love me and care about me

My ears must be broken though

Because tonight I can’t hear anyone caring.

Or at least, I only hear about 2 people who really care

And I am grateful for those 2 people,

But I still feel it’s not enough

It’s not enough for me to feel like it would really make much of a difference

If I was erased from existence.
