I Am Your Nothing

By ToxicLove

I am not wanted here, I am not your dream
Your actions speak so much louder than a scream

I shutter, why do I shutter when you walk into a room
Afraid, I am afraid of your actions, your reaction to my every move

My tears, they are invisible to you
My breaking heart has proven steady and true

But it seems that you search for a reason to rip my heart from my chest
I am nothing, not love or possession, not the worst but certainly not the best

I am not wanted here, I am not your dream
Your actions speak so much louder than a scream

I sense your presence, your thoughts are heavy, but it is your actions that I truly fear
Your triteful words, your ice cold glare

I am not welcome here, there is no place for me in your heart
For those before me own my place, they occupy that part

You walk through your days with anger at your side, vengence directs your every step
We are all left here in the fallout of your lifes every mishap

I am not wanted here, I am not your dream
Your actions speak so much louder than a scream

Like a beacon betrayal guides you through the dark
Trusting in no one, you built an unbreakable vault around your heart

I wait, I am patient because for you I would risk it all
I hope in my love you will find me worth the fall

I pray that I am worth fighting for, as much as you are to me
I pray that something in my touch, my caring, my love... my belief in you will somehow set you free

I am not wanted here, I am not your dream
Your actions speak so much louder than a scream
