I'm waiting for a boy
To notice my stare
And find me
Before I disintegrate

I can't deny I linger
As I fade away
But I'm hoping to be seen
For more than a shadow

I don't wanna be an afterthought
Beautiful for my anonymity
If that's all you want of me
Then you can live in my memory

I feel sly eyes
When I enter the room
Ready to deny
They noticed my presence

I can't fathom why
It is they treat me
Like I'm a secret
From myself

I don't wanna be dismissed
Lovely for my silence
If I'm supposed to be a thought
Think of me after I've gone

Please understand
I'm not looking for a savior
To pluck me from
Some terrible woe

It might give you confidence to know,
I'm looking for the right hand to hold
No matter where I go

I'm waiting for a love
To fill me with joy
Sharing the experience
Of undoubtedly existing
