Neglect.
It is a feeling that dwells deep within your mind, heart, and soul.
Neglect is that feeling of aching need, that need to be noticed.
That need to be loved. That need to be desired.
Neglect is that burning sensation in your throat when your eyes are welling up with tears and your fists are clenched.
Neglect is something that we face daily.
It can be as simple as someone not listening to a story you want to tell them.
It may not seem like much at the time, but eventually it eats you alive.
It's like everything you have known, loved, and trusted just threw you into your own grave.
Neglect is betrayal. Neglect is pain.
Neglect.... It's life.
It is something we will deal with forever, some of us more than others.
It feels like you're in a burning building, screaming and wailing for help, and everyone just laughs and points at you.
Neglect is hopelessness.
Neglect... It's all we know.
