Don't Forget About Me

Now you just smirk
and put your arm around me.
I'll go along faking this as always.
While you look the other way.

I can't breathe when you're around me.
I am being drowned in sand,
asphyxiated.
A plastic bag is thrown over my head.

And you don't notice.
I didn't think you would.

That feeling down in my stomach
pushing through my throat,
makes me think that I can't handle this.
Anymore.

You'll cry when you notice
I'm "suddenly" not there.
Well don't.
We will all make fools of ourselves by unveiling emotions.

I will be fine,
as long as you don't forget about me.
