I paw at your feet looking for affection
If only for you to consider me less than the full frame of a human being
I jump through hoops looking for your applause
If only for you to clap when it’s convenient if only I had made you look good
I beg for your eyes to monitor my life
If only for you to set them downcast on everything I have ever said or done
Guess I’ll never be good enough for you
But I’m lovesick
So against my will I won’t stop pining for even just an inkling of your love
i'm experiencing this exact thing right now. i wish i was strong enough to close the door.
I can relate. The gift of living too much. A gift that’s not for the faint of heart. Thanks for sharing.
