It's easier for you to walk away than it is for you to reach out to me
It's easier for you to look away than it is for you to see the depth of my despair
It's easier for you to look through me than it is for you to see "me"
It's easier for you to distance yourself than it is for you to really care
It's easier for you to judge than it is for you to understand
It's easier for you to  label than it is for you to get aquainted
It's easier for you to bask in your joy than to feel my pain

It's easier for me to look away than it is to let you see the feelings betrayed through my eyes
It's easier for me to cry than it is for me to talk
It's easier for me to distance myself than it is for me to trust that you won't hurt me
It's easier for me to die than it is to face life's challanges

It's hard for me to smile when I am hurting
It's hard for me to talk when you won't understand
It's hard for me to reach out when I need help the most

If only you'd really look at me and understand who I am
If you only cared to reach out when I pushed you away
If only you would hold me without asking why
If only you would acknowledge the validty of my feelings

Alot of us don't try hard enough huh? Very good poem that expressed that point well.

"I want you to believe in life.
But I get the strangest feeling that you've gone away.
Will you find out who you are, too late to chan
