Cornered

CORNERED

I would love not be backed into a corner

Love to be in love and not scorned

I would enjoy them having this knot

And see how easy it was to be forgotten

The noise in their head and chaos in their chest

Always wondering if they were the pest

Not being annoyed – how wonderful that would be

If only they could understand what it's like to be me

To never have someone to lean on or no one on my side

Always hear bickering or silence when you try to confide

I'm always striving to not care but then I turn cold

To never have anyone listen and always be scolded

I would love someone to hug me and understand

Just someone to be there and hold my empty hand

Or massage my aching heart

To be one piece and not in parts
