Will you care?

Listen!

Please hear me out,

I am not saying anything 

Pointless or vain

Help me out please,

Just open your ears,

Don't you want to hear

What I have to say

You say you love me

Unless that's a lie,

You say you will be there for me

But seemingly keep ignoring me,

The pain you cause

The mainly sleepless nights.

 

Listen!

I have a story too

You can pretend 

I'm just a ghost

I will be your banshee

For all of your days

Haunting you endlessly

The smile I had to wear

The silence I had to keep

Fromly Silence and Smiles

That was all I knew

But longer shall I be silent

I wish for you to hear.

 

Listen!

I know I make no sense

Understand that's not the goal

I wish you could understand

Why have you left me so?

To stand alone

I am lonely

This pain I carry'

It hurts me so

 

Listen!

It seems Samuel will be my friend

Soon!

Then that's when you will listen

When you see me in the box

I will make you feel what i felt

You should have heard me

I asked you to 

Listen!

But now its to late

I will truly be gone.

 

So to you all that will not listen

Stare into that box,

Without its soul!
