My thoughts and feelings are valid and important I choose to express them to you

But you didn't ask about me or how I felt You discarded my words They meant nothing to you

So I'm finished I won't let you back in to my mind or my heart

If you won't listen to me Then I won't talk to you

I don't understand I can't I'm not you I haven't lived your life But I will support you

No matter what your problem No matter how bad it seems Know that if you ask I will sit and listen

I wanted to show how much I care So I sat and listened to you talk But I didn't respond or react So you thought I wasn't paying attention

Sometimes it might feel like no one will listen to you that your troubles aren't enough for people to stop and care
