Have you?

You think I don’t care,
But have you seen me,
Lie awake at night,
Crying over you,
Wishing I was strong enough,
To save your broken heart,

Have you seen me,
Watching you from across the room,
With a sharp object,
Scratching your skin off,
Wondering how to make you stop,

Have you heard me,
Crying to my friend,
Asking him to help me,
Save your precious arms,

You seem to misunderstand,
My feelings for you,
You seem to want more attention,
Attention that I couldn’t give you,

I’m trying so hard,
To learn to live,
To stand on my own,
I forget to watch how I treat my friends,

But you’re so important to me,
Even when I don’t show it,
I don’t mean to treat others better,
I don’t want to hurt you,

This is my apology,
You don’t have to forgive me,
I just want you to know,
I only want to make you see,
You’re my best friend,
You’re very important to me.
