Monica 2010 - “The Difference Between You and Me”: Uncovering the Hidden Truths Behind Our Perceptions

There’s lots of bad around us. <br />Sometimes its masked behind the bright colors of the world. <br />Other times it hits you in the face like a bad day. <br />Why is it you never see the little things I do? <br />You never seem to fully notice me? <br />The world is full of pain, way to much pain. <br />Why cant’s for one second we all just be on a parallel universe that fits our every want and need? <br />I just wish I could sit in the rain and watch the world crumble down as if it were a little kid tumbling down their toy blocks. <br />I watch as you walk away from me laughing and I’m just stuck alone to notice the things you don’t. <br />I laugh at your ignorance to face your problems. <br />I walk around with the fake smile that you believe every single time a tear a tear runs down my face. <br />You turn and continue life, as it should be. <br />But what you don’t know is every time I see you I die a little inside. <br />I said “I love you” and you say it back but the difference is, I wasn’t lying. <br />At night I lay with my razor in hand and write you name on my wrists. <br />I watch as the blood drips on my cloths and cry myself to sleep. <br />I wake up and do it all over again to make it worse.<br /><br />Monica 2010<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/the-difference-between-you-and-me-2/
