Do you hear me?
Can you see me?
I’m sitting right behind you
Standing right beside you
Did you notice me?
Is it because I’m not perfect
Because I’m not miserable
Or do I just intimidate you?
Are you purposefully ignoring me
Or do you just not notice me?
Even though I try to stand out
I feel like I just blend in
I try to speak
But my voice gets lost in the crowd
All the other voices drowning mine out
Competing for your attention with all these other more interesting people
That you seem to like more
We used to be close
We used to talk all the time
You used to notice me
But now
I try to talk to you
And you mutter a response
And turn back to your more interesting friends
I sometimes get the feeling that I am a burden unto you
So I finally stop talking
I stop trying to stand out
You say you’re my friend
But do you even remember me?
