Stupid Attention Seeker



I dont know what to say
When someone asks if I'm okay
I dont want to lie, but they dont want to hear the truth
For now I'll be fine, Lie their worries away
No one needs to know what I'm going though
They would laugh, they dont understand
No one does, no one gets it, no one cares
Why do I even try to get them to notice?
If I wont tell them when they ask
I disgust myself, The Stupid Attention Seeker.
Im not okay. I promise.
