Fueled Frustrations

Frustrations are fueled
You neglecting my needs
Falling apart in front of you
And you don't even see me
Behind my smiles
Behind my brown eyes
Lives so much hurt
I work hard to disguise

Frustrations fueled
Constantly degrading
Receiving discredit in return
Denying me any claim
Less you forget
I am of your design
Our blood is the same

Fueled frustrations
Behind my calm demeanor
I'm angry inside
Voice without chords
Replaying then rewind
Kept closed up
Suffocating my soul
Neglecting the needs
Of your design

Behind my smiles
Behind my brown eyes
Are tears you don't see me cry
Shame blind
You demand more
Offering less
Contributing to my world
Of emptiness
Neglecteing the needs
Of your design
Fueling my frustrations
