Don't Notice


by Jon McFarland



I sit in the middle,
of all those who know me.
My mind is so brittle,
but none of them see.
My nerves are crashing,
from choices I can't consume.
These needs are haunting,
my emotions find their doom.
My soul is growing void,
happiness burns away here.
My life is still toyed,
but not to bring fear.
I face all the pain,
with open arms and eyes.
Hold it back with that stain,
and another part of me dies.
And nobody sees me now,
nobody pulls me away.
The black is to my brow,
and it's higher every day...
