Maybe Then Poem by ESPN CHICK

Can you see me
See me standing here drowning in my tears
Losing it emotionally
I can barely breathe

I have to pretend that I'm okay
Even though deep down I know I'm really not
Cause people always have to interfere
Seems like they don't have anything else better to do

And yes I cry sometimes for no reason at all
But who cares there just tears
God put tears in our eyes
No sense in letting them waste is there

Giving up on things I love
I'm through with everything that has to do with love
Cause love has never even gave me a chance
A chance to show my soft heart

Maybe that's why my heart is bruised
Bruised because I've been to soft
Letting people run all over me
And get away with it

How can I sit there and take it
Maybe their day will come
When they are all in pain and nothing seems to go their way
Maybe they will get what they deserve

Just let their minds rot
Let their insides be torn apart
Their hearts be bruised
And their bodies be broken into thousands of pieces

Let them feel what I feel each and everyday
Maybe then they will understand
But they will only think of themselves
Thinking how can something happen to a good person like me

Well I ask myself that every day
I try hard to be the good person everyone ought to be
But then everyone just pushes me around like a dummy
Like I mean absolutely nothing at all

How can they be so cold
They over look everything that is right in front of them
When will they ever learn
That they can't over look the slightest thing

I wish they would trip and fall
Fall so hard that their bleeding
Maybe then they will know what its like to hurt so damn bad
Maybe then they will get what they only deserve
