Look at Me Just Once


Look at me.
 
Please. Just Once.
 
I'm dying inside.
 
You don't even notice.
 
I hope you'll see beneath my mask.
 
But, it seems like you won't.
 
If you look closely,
 
even if it's just once.
 
You'll notice that I'm dying in life.
 
I have no reason to go on,
 
But you.
 
If you help me,
 
I promise I'll never die again.
 
But if you're too late,
 
Then please know
 
That it wasn't your fault.
 
It'll be alright.
 
Trust me.
 
But, just look at me.
 
Just once and save me.
 
look at me once and help me live.
 
Save…
 
me…
 
please…
