I feel like no ones listening
To what I have to say
They hear me
But ignore me……
And just walk away
Here I am standing up
Screaming out my way
And all they say
Is “go away.”
Crying and all wet
Sitting down upset
I look to my right
To see that shining light
That always comes at night
To tell me
Everything’s alright
My light
