I saw you standing in the sunlight.
I knew who you were, you did not know me.
I glanced up and saw you staring into the distance.
I saw you, you did not see me.
I watched you laughing.
I shared in your joy, you did not notice mine.
I listened to every word that passed from your lips.
I understood you, you did not understand me.
I wiped a tear that had stained your cheek, and kissed it away.
I felt your pain, you did not feel mine.
I listen and I care.
You talk at me and don't notice.
I feel left out and alone when I am with you.
They said you discovered I wasn't around anymore.
Too late -- I am gone.
