Who Am I?

You may think you know me but you don't.
Who you think I am isn't me.
I am an awesome person,
though you may not see it.
I am caring.
I see what other people overlook.
See that girl over there,
the one laughing and smiling?
She is happy isn't she?
There you would be wrong.
She is unhappy and just wants to curl up in the fetal position.
Her friends make her feel like she is nothing and her home life sucks.
If you looked at her eyes you would see that.
What about that guy over there?
He seems like a care free, happy-go-lucky guy.
Incorrect.
He is miserable and you don't even realize it.
What about me?
How do I feel?
I look happy don't I?
Wrong again.
If this were baseball you would have just struck out.
Because you see,
I am not at all happy bub.
I am miserable.
But you wouldn't know.
You see what you want to see,
not what is right in front of you.
That is where you and I differ.
I see the pain in people.
I try to help them and make them feel better,
but the thing is they don't want me.
They want you.
So open your eyes.
Start caring about the people you "care" about.
I am not doing it anymore.
I shouldn't have to be hurt for caring.
So I am not.
Peace.
