Screenshot fate

Left on read...
And now I’m bleeding in silence, again.
Did you even notice?

Hit the scene like I never existed
Left me ghosted, like I ain’t persistent
Layin’ in bed, starin’ holes in the ceiling
Wonderin’ if you'd flinch if you felt what I'm feelin’

Laughed through the pain, made it a joke
Every scar—another punchline I spoke
Said I’m tired, you just nodded
Didn’t see the noose in the words I plotted

I was loud in the quiet, silent screams
But no one sees when you fit their dream
Showin’ up with a cracked up grin
Till the light in my soul gave out within

You said “I’m here,” but not when I bled
You held the glue... and watched me shred

Did you notice when I broke that night?
Or did my tears just drown in the streetlight?
Fadin’ out, with no grip to hold
But I guess you were busy, let the story unfold
Did you see me—or just the mask?
‘Cause I ain’t felt real in ages past

Burned every bridge just to see who'd care
Lit the whole sky, but nobody was there
You watched from a distance, cool and numb
While I turned to ash with no place to run

Left messages in jokes, cries in sighs
You skipped the lines, ignored the signs
Said “I gotchu” when the weather was calm
But when thunder screamed, you were gone

Called me strong like that shit meant peace
But strength’s a lie when the pain won’t cease
And no one checks in when you smile too well
So I kept sinking—alone in this hell

I didn’t want saving, not some fake light
Just someone to sit in the dead of night
No prayers, no quotes, no “I miss you” lies
I needed you before I said goodbye

Did you notice when the light went black?
Or did you just scroll, never lookin’ back?
I held on, thread thin, breath tight
But you smiled like I’d be alright
Did you even hear me—did you feel the weight?
Or am I just another screenshot fate?

I left clues in the quiet, but I guess they were small
A meme, a laugh, nothin’ at all
That’s the curse when you're dyin’ inside—
You want someone to see…
But you still hide.

Don’t post a quote.
Don’t fake that love.
Don’t type “miss you”
When you gave me none.

I needed you.
I needed you.
But now I’m just... background noise in your feed.


Maybe I talk too much when I’m hurtin’.
Maybe I don’t say enough when I’m breakin’.
Maybe I died in drafts you’ll never read.
Maybe I’m just a ghost you helped bleed.

And if I vanish...
Let the silence explain.
'Cause pain left on read
Still feels like pain.
