I used to wonder
Do I matter?
Does anyone care?
What is my worth?
Do I matter?

My family-
They have made it clear
My abusers comfort is worth more than my life
They have made it clear
My abusers comfort is worth more than my life
All the therapists
I saw as a child
Ignored the obvious signs of abuse and couldn't be bothered with saving me

My teachers
The school I went to
Saw me as a nuisance more than they saw my value

So many friends
Just walked away
They didn't care that I was in pain, they needed to look good for shidduchim
Just walked away
They didn't care that I was in pain, they needed to look good for shidduchim
And now again, I wonder
Do I matter?
Does anyone care?
What is my worth?

Sometimes I feel alone
ReplyDeleteNo-one on my side
These hearts of stone
Behind pretense hide
Smiling in the public face
Say they truly care
Without a trace
No remorse in the tear
Sometimes I wonder
How is the world so blind
Never look what's under
Afraid of what they'll find
The lie keeps growing tall
Blame the wounded heart
Whose blood stains the wall
And all took part
Sometimes I still cry
For those who are trapped
Weaving the lie
In which they are wrapped
They will never see
When I got up on my own
The truth stood up with me
Making my story known
