One in a Million

To quote Brian Wilson "Sometimes I feel very sad".

Sometimes I feel alone even when
I am surrounded by those who care
I just can't be around others
when I need peace of mind

I'm wanted by some
but what about my needs?
It's as though my feelings matter not
if they have something to say

Sometimes I feel like a child
lost in a world of eternal grey
And there's no sunshine
to paint an escape back to my happiness

I've been told I'm bright
but why am I always left in the shadows?
I don't want to be miserable
but you never listen even when I am happy...

I get upset sometimes and I don't know why
I feel depressed and I can't explain the reasons

Who is there for me everyone has left?
Though I want to be alone at times
I know those who choose to remain
will only leave when I need them the most

Nobody wants to listen anymore
Nobody wants to listen anymore
Nobody wants to care anymore
I feel like one in a million

This is so sad :/ I know someone who feels this way right now and it's not fun to watch him feel like that. Being heard is so important or I guess I should say when you feel as if you're being heard. I got all teary eyed lol which is pretty rare so good job! :) "I don't want to be miserable but you never listen even when I am happy...

Some part of our self is happy because we still have good Friends to remain on our side , but the other side of us is Confuse and afraid because maybe someday they will left u but worst if they left u when U really need them ....

Nice work my friend :) Keep it up.
