Judging You

Judging You Some days it just don't matter the choices that you're choosing. Cause it's not really up to you if you're winning or you're losing. There's someone waiting in the wings watching what you got. Telling you the things you are and all the things you're not. You step up to the plate in life, you dare to take a swing. Turning to the one you love they didn't see a thing. Not budging while their judging you it's been that way for years. They turn away not much to say ignoring all your tears. Somewhere lost along the way at someone else's whim. You can't find what's left of you cause all that's left is them. You pray someday the sun will shine and somehow they'll be able. To see the difference you have made, what you bring to the table. Pretending never ending it don't matter, you don't mind. Never knowing never showing all this time that they've been blind.
