Why Do I Bother?

Why do I bother
To make myself beautiful
Just for you to not notice

Why do I bother
To talk to you
For you just to ignore me

Why do I bother
To call you by your name
Even though you don't even know what letter mine starts with

Why do I bother
To worry about you when your sad
When you don't see me when I cry

Why do I bother
To share your joy
If you don't even realize you're part of mine

Why do I bother
To see you everyday
Because I don't exist to you
