overflow.

and there i walked, rain crashing down my face.
the events that transpired flashing through my mind.
i walked alone on the stone path, thinking

"what is there between us?"

i dwell upon the things we do, we did
i rethink the moments we share
and realize that, maybe, i'm just a nobody for you.

there was a time you asked me,
"who are you, anyway, that you wanna know stuff about me?"

maybe that IS how you feel.
maybe that IS what i am to you.
just a nobody.
a shadow that hovers around you,
caring without a heart.
loving without love to give.
a ghost walking in a neighborhood with nothing to gain.

i try to think positive.
try to life up those cheeks with a smile.
a smile that can easily be passed as real,
while the real face inside is crushed.
while the real emotion is subdued and kept in.

as if anybody would care.
as if i cared if anybody besides YOU cared.

just let things go the way they are.
just keep things in and hide it from the world.

and when it's too much.
put it into words
as emotions overflow.
