Please watch me
I beg to be held
I writhe in the spot light
Everyone's attention but your own
I silently hope as you watch me
I watch emotions flicker through
You eyes sparkle under the light
You clap once when I finish
Another remark never to be made
Late that night I hear you
My eyes closed tight
Not wishing to hear your thoughts
I hear you turn to leave
But then you stop
And I think I hear you whisper
Words that make my heart soar
I want to show you that I hear you
But you just leave anyways
So I stay silent before I awake
My eyes glistened with tears
For words left unsaid
