Distance by KristyD.

I can't explain how I feel,
I can't tell you what is real.
In my eyes, there falls the tears,
Showing you my secret fears.
But in this pain, I can not speak it,
And with this pain, I am defeated.
I pick up the phone, and dial the numbers,
But eyes become teary, and mind wanders,
I try to tell you how I resent,
and how I use your presence to vent.
But as I try, I always fail,
My eyes are blackened, my skin turns pale.
And as weary hands shake and rumble,
My faltering heart begins to stumble.
I push you away, I ask you to leave,
But my real wants you to never percieve.
I really want you only to stay,
until my fears have been washed away.
And because you running is all i see,
It's hard to believe you could ever love me.
I'm tired of being just another "good listener"
I'm tired of being just another "little sister"
I'm no one's sweet angel, and dont wish to be,
But this is another thing you don't see.
I don't wish to be treated as a protected daughter,
And in times of peril, I am not your marter,
This truth may come shocking, you may be amazed,
But I am an independent young lady, and this is no phase.
I don't need you to force me up when I fall down.
I just need to know you love me, and that you'll always be around.
But in this time where I no longer know me,
You leave me lost and on my pain you feed.
You people, despite your claims, are not my friends,
So goodbye to you all, this is my thankful end.
