White Lies

They don't know.

I can't describe

the way I feel,

I don't know why

I let the words get to me

I can't say

that I'm oh so sad,

but I'd be lying

if I said I was fine.

I should probably take a stand

and tell them how I feel,

but I hesitate

because I know they won't listen.

I feel unheard,

although my thoughts are unsaid

I catch everythign they say,

yet the cruel words never seize

to fill my head.

What's the matter

with being a little nice,

I haven't seen that attitude

n quite some time.

My heart is fragile as glass

that keeps on being dropped

this can't keep going on,

because the pieces can't be glued back.

No one understands,

because no one even tries

If you have something to say,

Just spare me

with your white lies.

@Nath thank you so much! I'll keep that in mind

Another really good piece of writing, you manage to get your point and your emotions across very well, maybe you could improve the spelling (I think it should be "cease" instead of "seize", not to be petty, just saying), other than that this poem is truly amazing.
Now, if people won't listen, make them, or find people who are willing to listen, if you don't find anyone near, look elsewhere.
I think we all have times in our lives when we think noone wants to listen or can understand, but we still need to express our emotions somehow. It's a great thing that you can express them so well with your poetry :-)
Since I myself have found myself trustworthy people online when I felt like I could talk to noone, I'd offer you an ear ready to listen if you need someone to talk, if you want to only, of course.

@Bella Flores thank you so much for the review! and the word 'with' is in there
because it completes the sentence 'if you have something to say, just spare me with your white lies.' but thanks anyway. i actually wrote this in detendtion :P

You might want to get rid of 'with' on the last line, its not needed in my opinion. Besides that, Every line hits me strongly. Still to this day, I get these same feelings.. its comforting to remember that I'm not the only that feels this why. Don't know if it will for you as well but so you know you're not the only that feels unheard. Have to keep looking for someone who will listen :) nicely written.
