My heart is in pain
No one can grasp why I hold back
They don't care either
But, for what reason should my suffering
be the reason for other's concern.
I'm not that important.
Not important at all...
So, why share my suffering with those around me?
If anyone cared, I wouldn't have to...

I find happy stuff boring too. but occasionally I like to give it a happy twist at the end. Thats always nice.

This is really sad! People do care....Publish some happy stuff okay? (This may sound mean but you always make fun of my laugh and lisp, so it's just my way of being friendly.)
