Description
Why do you make me feel this way?What have I done wrong?
Do I really not mean anything to you?
Don't think I haven't noticed. Don't think I haven't seen the signs.
You say I'm your son, yet you never seemed to show or care much beyond that.
You feed, clothe, and provide me shelter, but you've left your unseen scars.
You were never asked how I felt. You were never there when I needed you most. And you certainly weren't there for my darkest hour.
Do you know who was there when you weren't? People I had only known for months, days even!
So where were you when I needed you?
For twenty years long years I've lived with you, yet you know nothing of me.
Do you know what my interests are? Will you listen to my opinions? Do you even care what they are?
You force me to do things I have no interest in. No care for. Not prepared for.
You say you know how I am, yet you continue to do these things to me.
Am I just a tool to you? Is that all I am? Not even a person with my own thoughts and opinions?
Have I simply worn this facade for so long that you have forgotten what I look like without it?
Have you really stopped caring about me that long ago?
Being around you seems to only bring me torment.
You instill me with fear and use my conscience for your own desires.
You infuse me with stress that causes me misery and despair.
You snuff out what self-esteem I manage to build up and plague me with self-doubt.
Have you not noticed anything about me?
Why do you do this to me? Do I mean nothing to you?
Why do you make me feel like a stranger in my own home?

*hugs tightly*Somehow I completely missed this. I'm sure you're probably better now, and I apologize for not getting to it sooner. I know you don't want sympathy, but I'm going to tell what I tell all of my friends; if you ever need someone to just listen, just to vent and get it out, that I'm always here, okay?

It's alright, I hid it not long after I submitted it. I didn't really expect anyone to find it.
Thank you, I really appreciate it. It's good to have friends like you, ya know.

Well I'm just a stalker like that, yo No I'm not. |D;; Don't tell Pscyho But in all seriousness I saw your thing pop up in my deviations inbox and I checked and saw one more that I hadn't read yet (still need to read the other one, but I was running late for class).

I won't, don't worry.
No worries, and there's no hurry.
You have my word. And you're like the little sister I never had and I'll always be there for you as well. I'll be there to help cheer you up.
