Words cut like a knife
As you interrupt and steal the spotlight
My voice drowned out by your ego and strife
Leaves me feeling small, invisible in your sight
I try to speak up, to make a point
But you barrel ahead
For how your actions make me feel out of joint
Feeling an overwhelming sense of disregard
Sadness creeps in, as I realize my fate
In this one-sided conversation
I try to participate
My words are pushed aside
So I sit and listen, feeling alone
As you dominate the talk with such ease
My heart heavy and isolated, looking for a home
Wishing for a moment where I can speak with ease.
