Poem - Shadow In Your Eye

When did I become
The shadow in your eye?
You blink and look away
With a heavy-hearted sigh.

When did I become
The background noise you hate?
I'm worthless and alone,
Forgotten by my fate.

When did I become
The touch you push away?
Why am I rejected
If I don't do as you say?

When did I become
The one you couldn't stand?
Is this the way you wanted?
Is this the life you'd planned?

When did I become
The shadow in your eye?
Broken, bloody, and lost,
Hopeless, here I lie.
