Play My Part

Tears fall unseen
Words are unspoken
Surrounded by people
Who love me
But have no time to listen
Who wish not to hear
To be disturbed by my pain
Loneliness eats into my soul
As I play the parts
Assigned to me
Be quiet, be sweet
Be there for us
Listen to our problems
Keep mine withheld
Tiredness overtakes me
Illness drains my body
My spirit is withering
My heart is breaking
I feel so alone.
