truth hurts

the reality you’ve established
is that I don’t exist
most evidenced by the way I’ve been
abysmally dismissed
the very moment I take the stage
you turn away from me
despite how many pins I juggle
you gaze beyond my glee
I know there’s no use trying harder
I already tried that
it just hurts to lose the love I had
that never loved me back
wading waist deep in the misery
my stomach tied in knots
I just had to grin and bear it while
concealing all my thoughts
despite all the times you cross my mind
never a word is said
the reality I've constructed
has you already dead
