Part 48: Wanting

I've always wanted something, haven't you? 
My wanting are ever so daunting 
I've wanted lots 
I've wanted to be heard 
I've wanted to do something 
I've wanted a mom back 
But most of all 
Like him I want to prove everyone wrong 

I've always wanted to be noticed, 
So bad... 
Now it aches 
Loneliness aches 
No matter how many people surround me 
I will always feel alone 
When I'm noticed I'm never heard 
I myself have become deaf, 
Due to the amount of unheard quotes I'd spout 
I surely try to shout 
Even if I do, you would listen to others 
Am I just a background prop? 
Easily replaced, 
Just a background noise, 
That can barely echo throughout the theatre 

I fake a smile 
Whereas inside I am dying, 
Crying, I've always been trying 
What did I do wrong? 
Should I tie a noose, 
Or... 
Try harder
