The Corners Poem by Cate C

Please

I beg you please just think of me

It doesn't make sense why do you think of them but not me

You always make a fuss over them but ignore me

Somehow their problems are as if the world is ending

But when i'm hurting you say i'm overreacting

why

why

why can't you see me

please just look at me

please just care about me

I don't wanna beg for your love but I will

My heart will continue to chase after you

Yet part of me will say no

No 

I can't run after you 

Not even that I can't but I won't

You make me invisible

I don't wanna be invisible but it feels nice

It feels like home

Its familiar and reminds me of the time when you did care

Right before you made me invisible

But still I love you

I love you but do you love me?

 My voice asks the question

Yet my brain knows the answer

No

You may not love me yet but maybe I can change that

Just maybe

I'm sure if I say please enough you'll finally say yes

This one time

Only this time I'll ask

For the last time

'do you love me? '

No matter what you say I'll walk away

I know one of your best traits is your ability to lie

Playing me it seems was your favorite game

Are you ready to stop playing?

Can you go from playing me to kind and sweet for me?

I'll beg only for a little bit longer 

As the sand slips away I start to take my steps for freedom

Start to take my steps toward happiness

The footprints left in the sand will be the only piece of me

Except

Except my love, my kindness, my advice, and my sacrifice.

Those things are stuck with you 

I know you won't want them though

The only thing you'll want is someone else to abuse

So I'll say my last please but with it I'll add a thank you

Thank you for the horrible times.
