Attention

by Lexi Hilife - Leo

so long i have craved  depraved  i try to get noticed accepted  to mean something  i'm not sure what  if i could get that feeling of a beamish child so proud look mommy and daddy i did it but all the puzzle pieces were not there there was no mommy long enough to even see me crawl and daddy's adoration had an ugly price  so hungry i paid it  now when i try to tell someone people are so saturated with this repetitive scenario in one ear and out the other you watch it go wondering why someone won't tell you you are worthy of praise for just survivng what makes me keep striving? i not sure i know.   lexi hilife

Reason for writing:

    i just woke up to the tea kettle whistling, and my tea leaves were full of questions,haunting recurring questions.
