Feeling Like Dirt Poem by Faduma Muhammed

It's like I'm a stranger to you
but you've been in my life forever
Deeply in love with you
but we're never together
Hurt I can no longer hold in
Guess I'm finally letting go
So much things i wish my heart would know
Never had i ever spoken to you
Never had i ever caught your eye
Maybe cause i have no faith in myself
Maybe cause i never try.
As if I'm invisible
Whenever you're around
Locking my words away
Not even making a sound
Why can't you see me?
Why can't you hear me?
You look through me
When i am there completely.
Finally i have stopped crying
Only because it's starting to hurt
Feeling useless
Feeling Like Dirt.
