little things

These feelings feel bad
- Unwanted, unneeded -
Like the words you said
My presence unheeded.

It’s the little things that make me
Lose my tongue and just stare.

It’s your little words that break me
Though you’re completely unaware.

It’s the little things that ache me
Like not daring to knock at your door.

It’s your little words that wake me
From daydreams, leaving me sore.

These feelings feel bad
- Unwanted, unneeded -
Like the words you said
My presence unheeded.
