Reflections

Anyone

I used to crave the world’s attention
I think I cried too many times
I just need some more affection
Anything to get me by

A hundred million stories
And a hundred million songs
I feel stupid when I sing
Nobody’s listening to me
Nobody’s listening
I talk to shooting stars
But they always get it wrong
I feel stupid when I pray
Why the fuck am I praying anyway?
If nobody’s listening (Demi Lovato)

This song breaks my heart. Thinking about those that teater on the edge. Some of us can hold it together maybe come back stronger, maybe just learn to deal with the loneliness that we feel.

That loneliness is sometimes real sometimes manufactured. No matter what, there is nothing anyone can do. No big gesture unless that person is ready for it to affect them.
