there
is an ache
in my throat
something must
have been strained
when i belted out those
songs i'd hadn't heard in
such a very long time
and perhaps it wont
make everyone
happy but i
cant help
their

Fight To Be Noticed

it goes from my throat
to the back of my
neck to my
chest to
my head
to my
eyes
and

seriously, i try these lines
i try these characters
i try the motions
i try i try i try
i want them
all to know
i want to
be all that
i can be for
you but
tonight
i felt
dry and
sick and
as if i
might
