The Poems of Me

People Who Pass Me By

~:~People Who Pass Me By~:~

Why do poeple look at me with those eyes?

And leave without saying their good-byes

They don't give me a second look

And think they could read me like an open book~

You think I'm happy and pass me all the while

But you don't know what I hide behind my smile

I put it on so people will think I'm fine

But I'm not, can't you tell my eyes don't shine?~

I just say 'I'm fine" and nobody says 'no you're not'

that's a lie I want to get caught

I reach out but you don't care

All of what's left is cold and bare~

I can't do this anymore

This is just making my heart too sore

I still don't cry

For reasons I don't know why~

So with all the people who pass me by

I look up into the sky

I let out a heavy sigh

and think why?~
