To a name left unsaid


in a world left unknown


To a person I will never recognize


to someone no emotions have been shown


i know nothing about your life


i do know you never tried


i'm 17 years old now


for you I will never cry


it may seem easy


to live your life as it may seem


its hard because you don't know I exist


its hard because you only exist in my dreams


we may be related


hardly at that


the thought of you in my life


makes my heartbeat go flat


you may know my name


I just wish you knew the pain I feel


I wish you were someone I could look up to


someone I trust for real


but dreams will be dreams


reality has yet to set in


not everyone is perfect


not everyone is meant to win


not every hole is meant to be filled


not everyone's dreams are meant to come true


for if that were the case


I would be looking into the eyes of you


you are my downfall


that thing that makes my heart weak


saying its hard not to have you in my life


is an understatement to speak


for now you stay in my thoughts


you will still make me sad


I will always know you as


That superman I never had
