Chess Game
Why can’t you understand
How much you hurt me
How I lay awake at night
Crying
Wondering what to do with myself
Wondering how to handle myself
Do you really not see
How much it bothers me
Or do you just not care
Am I just another pawn in your chess game
Use me for small things
But you never really care
When it comes to my feelings
You are oblivious
But here’s the problem
The pawns are the protectors
So what will happen
When they all go away
You’re left alone
In this crazy messed up world
Maybe that’s what it will take
A reality check
I am here right now for you
But in a blink of an eye
I can be gone
Just like that
