No One Will Notice
(c) by R Bowen
I lift the load no one will claim
And hide my hurt beneath the flame
My hands are torn, my shoulders bend
But still I carry till the end
I break myself to make you whole
I trade my body for your soul
I bleed in silence, wear the strain
And no one will notice my pain
The nights grow long, the hours are cold
My story’s never fully told
I mend the cracks you never see
While losing pieces quietly
I break myself to make you whole
I trade my body for your soul
I bleed in silence, wear the strain
And no one will notice my pain
The weight I carry pulls me low
Yet still I smile so you won’t know
The truth is carved across my face
A fading ghost you can’t replace
I break myself to make you whole
I trade my body for your soul
I bleed in silence, wear the strain
And no one will notice my pain
No one will notice
No one will notice
