Hurt

He doesn't see her

But she sees him all too clearly

While she barely exists to him

She watches him exist

She sees a light he tries to hide

A sad kind of light

He doesn't think they can see

But she sees

And knows he would never

Ask for her help

She would hold him

Tell him it's alright

Keep his light safe

But she knows he'll never ask

Alone she watches

And alone he hurts

But she also knows

It could never happen anyway

From the guy's perspective, it makes me wonder what I might have missed in the past.
